I can't start applications from command line on my Xperia X running SFOS 3.0.0.8. Jolla 1 and Xperia XA2 Ultra both running 3.0.0.8 work, however. When I open Terminal, and try to run e.g. sailfish-browser I get the following error message:

[C] unknown:0 - Failed to create display (No such file or directory)

I compared the environment between Jolla1 and Xperia X, and found out the difference. On my Xperia X I have the following:

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="/var/run/user/0"

There is no such folder, but /var/run/user/100000 does exist. On my Jolla 1 and Xperia XA2 I logically have the following:

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="/var/run/user/100000"

That directory does exist.

When I try to run e.g. XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="/var/run/user/10000" sailfish-browser on my Xperia X, the application starts as expected.
