hi, have you ever tried % ssh -X you@remote_host -X is for X-forwarding and should setup everything nicely on the remote host (most of all $DISPLAY). on the localhost of course you still have to issue a % xhost $remote_host to grant the remote host display permissions on your machine and

I am sorry I don't remember the details, but when I had this problem last year, I was going from one MDK7.2 to another, and I found I could ssh into the host, then su, and then the remote session worked fine, so I determined it wasn't the export settings, it was a permissions issue. I cannot
