Bug#236998: Problems with remote X-apps after updating xfree-pkgs to 4.3.0-5
Package: xfree86 Version: 4.3.0-5 Severity: important I'm currently using debian/unstable on two desktop machines, both using KDE 3.2 from unstable as WM. After upgrading to the latest x*-packages (4.3.0-5) some serious problems with applications running on a remote machine (via ssh -X) turned up (see below). I have an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro (using ATIs proprietary driver ver 3.2.8) with a dual-head setup (two independent displays) on the main workstation, using the X-server to display applications running on both machines. (Due to some strange old problem, the fglrx 3D-hw-accel works only when I start X as root, but I think this problem is unrelated to the one described below) I included /var/log/XFree86.0.log at the end of the message. Problems with remote X apps (new in 4.3.0-5): x) strange problem with X forwarding if I do a glxinfo after logging in with ssh -X, I get the following output: #glxinfo name of display: localhost:10.1 Xlib: extension GLX missing on display localhost:10.1. Xlib: extension GLX missing on display localhost:10.1. Xlib: extension GLX missing on display localhost:10.1.

Thanks - that did the trick! I was using ssh 3.8p1, after downgrading to 3.6.1p2-12 on both systems everything works fine again. --jr

From ssh_config(5): ForwardX11Trusted If the this option is set to ``yes'' then remote X11 clients will have full access to the original X11 dis- play. If this option is set to ``no'' then remote X11 clients will be considered untrusted and prevented from stealing or tampering with data belonging to trusted X11 clients. The default is ``no''. ah - that's been it. with this option, the problems (using ssh 3.8) disappeared. thanks! --jr
