Stream:
I've been running more tests.

I can run xterm when I ssh -X into the Linux PC, but I can't run it locally. Does this give you any hints as to what might be the issue?

When I run it locally the message says

xterm: Xt error: Can't open display:
xterm: DISPLAY is not set


after running export DISPLAY=:0 followed by xterm the error I receive is

xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: :0

Did you try

export DISPLAY=0

The colon seems unnecessary, but I don't know.

Just tried it. No luck.

bob:
The colon is required.
This indicates that the dummy xserver isn't running on the machine you are logging into.

ps -ef | grep Xorg | grep -v grep
will tell you if Xorg is running. If you get nothing back, it's not.

I think you're on to something. I got nothing back. Any idea how to change that?
