Ok, I'm having issues with forwarding X from my N800 with OS2008 to my Linux desktop, I can forward X from my Desktop to the N800, just not the other way around.

EG. on the Linux desktop generally you type this to forward X from one Linux box to another.

ubuntu:$ ssh -X root@n800

it connects fine and has a $DISPLAY setting of :0.0 which is odd because all my other Linux Desktops with ssh forwarding set the $DISPLAY to localhost:10.0

I suspect this might be a setting in OpenSSH-Server, but I for the life of me can't work out how or why its setting the display variable wrong.

Make much sense?

Pretty much X forwarding from my N800 forwarded to the Linux box doesn't seem to work correctly.

did I use the word forward enough?

Cheers
