Ssh forwards windows from the remote computer to whatever display you have set in your DISPLAY variable on the local computer. So, in this case, you would want to start the xserver on your local computer, then run DISPLAY=:2 ssh -X -Y -C -c blowfish -l mark IP-address to forward apps on the remote computer to your second local display -- Calvin Walton -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
