It appears that you are having a permissions issue to begin with. I
am wondering if you installed ENVI/IDL with SELinux enabled. This
might have changed the permissions for your installation directory,
thereby only allowing you to run ENVI/IDL as root. What do you get
when you

open a terminal
cd /usr/local/itt
ls -l

On my working installation (I can run as user), I get the following
when I run the above commands

drwxr-xr-x 10 root:users 4096 ... idl71

Another modification that will need to be made will be to do the
following in the terminal (or add the following to your shell startup
script)

export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true

This resolves an issue with Eclipse not playing nicely with this
Ubuntu distribution.
