But you said this didn't work:
ssh -X -Y -p xxxx root@remote_host yast2 & yast2 --qt &
Right?
yes, but yast --gtk & does
Also in this: ssh -X -Y -p xxxx remote_host sudo yast2
You need to show 'DISPLAY' after your sudo, like: sudo bash -c 'echo "DISP=$DISPLAY"; yast2'
I'm betting you have some improved su/sudo or config files with them that improve your security by wiping 'DISPLAY'
would make sense if yast2 --ncurses yast2 --gtk didn't work. -- Boyd Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com> 801 849-0213 ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
