I guess you don’t have xorg installed.
Xhost install,

Please no pictures, never, from terminal.
Images can be read worse, are not searchable and copy able for further search.
From your first picture, read, it needs sudo like filo wrote

alias | grep gparted
alias gparted 'sudo -E gparted'

If you start apps that need root rights to work, they ask for if you start them.
So here you can start directly the app with root rights.

Just read the answer from terminal. If you press enter or y enter the tool look in the repos and search for you the needed app and most of the time it can be installed with another enter.

okay, in the future i will copy the text from terminal.

Yes, i know, that need sudo, generally the app ask about password after starting it. but in this case after sudo still doesn’t start the gparted.

Agree, my bad.
