This looks like SDL is having problems connecting to the X server. Is
the DISPLAY environment variable set and are you able to run other
Xwindows applications from the command line? Perhaps try xdpyinfo.

It could also be an X11 access control problem. A quick search online
for X11 "no protocol specified" showed a few people having problems
running X11 applications as root (and I noticed you are running simh as
root). The problem was due to a missing .Xauthority file for the root
user. Check the environment variable XAUTHORITY.
