This is a known problem. There are plans to fix it in the
works. Currently there are two options:
1) Connect to any X server,by setting your display variable
in CSH you could do 'setenv DISPLAY localhost:0.0' to connect to
the local X server, or however you set your environment variables
in your environment. You may also have to do a xhost +hostname if
the hostname is not local. (NOTE: You don't have to connect to the
*local* X server though, you can connect to any X server.)
2) If you aren't running X on any nearby servers, you can install
xvfb, the virtual frame buffer. You can find a good primer on
getting this it at http://tmap.pmel.noaa.gov/home/ferret/FAQ/graphics/Xvfb.html.
