I think the problem has to do with the DISPLAY variable. The SSH that<br>
comes with Lenny mangles that variable in an odd way. On my local<br>
machine, DISPLAY is set to ":0.0". When i ssh to somewhere else it is<br>
set to something like "localhost:10.0". But with each new connection to<br>
a remote machine, the "10" is incremented. I no longer have a machine<br>
with X and the old SSH available to me to see what the older (correct)<br>
behavior is.</blockquote></div><br>I think this is the only behavior I've ever known about, and I've been doing X11 over ssh for about 9 years.<br>
