[orca-list] problem using xclip on a regular tty



I am trying to get data from the speakup clipboard to the X
clipboard.  If I do
xclip -i <string>
it says cannot open display.  If I do
DISPLAY=:0;xclip -i <string> I get the following error:
Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyError: Can't open display: :0

How can I get this to work, or is it impossible?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
