I have a fresh install selenium/ff/chrome/ruby/imagemagick and I get this error on headless.take_screenshot

Same issue on linux Kubuntu 17;04

it seems to be because of the way import is call :

system "#{CliUtil.path_to('import')} -display localhost:#{display} -window root #{file_path}"

the presence of 'localhost' trigger this error

Any updates on this? I'm also experiencing a similar issue on a new Ubuntu 14 and I have no clue where to start investigating. We're on cucumber, with ImageMagick, Rails, Selenium, Chrome.
