I have noticed that since about a month ago, my root
ssh terms (ssh -l root localhost) get default values
for the DISPLAY variable which are some what strange
to me. Values like:

"DISPLAY=hostyouareconnectingfrom:24.0"

before it used to be:

"DISPLAY=hostyouareconnectingfrom:0.0"

If you change it to DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 then you can
run your X apps with no problem.
