Upgraded from 2.21 or an older version?
Do the other X apps that work include Gtk+-based programs (GIMP, ...)?
Please try ssh -Y instead of -X. Normal Gtk+ apps such as Gwyddion
should not need it but who knows...
Then try to run gwyddion --sync in gdb and obtain a backtrace, i.e:
gdb $(which gwyddion)
# in gdb
run --sync
# when it crashes
bt
# copy the backtrace somewhere and then
quit
so that we can see when/where it crashes. The backtrace will be more
meaningful if you install -dbg packages of the involved libraries (gtk+,
glib) and Gwyddion (if you installed it from a package, manually
compiled programs normally aren't stripped of debug symbols so that's
OK). See also
