now this is strange. on 192.168.0.3 I can run gimp (which is not on .3) from 192.168.0.4 however gedit will not run on .3 .
Cool after a bit of research I learned it is a gedit bug! and to successfully rungedit I need to start it with sudo. Not an ideal situation. :-)~MIKE~(-: On Sun, Aug 3, 2014 at 8:46 PM, Michael Havens <bmi...@gmail.com> wrote: > I messed up....
