You can just check if the DISPLAY environment variable is set. Like this: ----------------------------------------8<---------------------------------------- import os import sys if 'DISPLAY' not in os.environ.keys(): print "Unable to start graphical application. Please, set DISPLAY \ environment variable." sys.exit(0) import gtk ----------------------------------------8<---------------------------------------- Put this before "import gtk" in zenmap main file to avoid some warnings too.

Zenmap should give a proper error in that case, not segfault. When I unset my display, I get a much more useful exception: RuntimeError: could not open display If anyone else gets the segmentation fault result described above and can find a fix, I'd be happy to integrate it.
