Subject: ssh -X user@host konsole opens a tunneled konsole, but then the tunnel lapses
Date: Fri, 04 Mar 2011 18:29:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTinWi1S=5raL7vmSqR+PP59N127iis8E7ty95KCJ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

CygWinners:

For years I have enjoyed one desktop with everything I need on it.

Then ssh -X stopped working. Sometimes, if I start a remote konsole,
and immediately start some new X window app, it runs thru the tunnel.

But now it trivially bombs, as if there were no remote X to attach to:

  kate: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0

Is there a timeout setting, somewhere, for the X tunnel? or some
similar setting to look at?

The host is any Win32 or Win64, and the client is Ubuntu...

I also tried manually setting the DISPLAY environmental variable...
