It will just say "Error: Can't open display:" Re-enabling IPv6 fixes the issue but is not desirable as IPv6 support remains unavailable in many areas. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Disable IPv6 on a remote machine 2.ssh -X in from other machine 3.try to run something like xclock Actual Results: You get a Error: Can't open display: message.

Sorry to sound ticked but having to enable IPv6 on a network that does not support IPv6 is just a royal pain and adds to all sorts of network lag. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From the e-mail ^^^

--- cut --- One thing I noticed quite some time ago (I guess, it was 11.1) that when you disable IPv6 through Global Network Settings in Yast, the file /etc/hosts still have some IPv6 definitions for local hosts and some others. This caused some problems until I removed these entries from /etc/hosts manually. --- cut --- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
