Is there any way to make SuSE 8.0 not REQUIRE the use of the DISPLAY variable when forwarding X11 output from one linux box to another?

Depends on how you want to go about it. If you are sitting at computer A, and want to log into computer B and have the display on A, you could:
ssh -l username -X hostname
Just make sure that on computer A you do:
xhost +computerB
first.
In the example above, the "xhost +computerB" command should be omitted. It only weakens the Xserver security. -- Alexandr.Malusek@imv.liu.se
