   !linux can't connect to a nested X either, the app runs without errors, but does't draw anything

     @warbo Tried -X, tried -Y, you need to try -Z ;-) What `ssh -v` tells you?

     @harnir not as far as I can tell, although I did use Firestarter to set up connection sharing

     @warbo What is in your remote $DISPLAY? Did you run `xhost +` on your local machine?

     @warbo Try start nested X as 'Xnest -ac :1' -ac means "disable access control restrictions" !linux

     @mikoo Tried that already :) Xnest and Xephyr, since that's how I give my chroots a GUI

     @harnir X is :0 and xhost + on chris-desktop & chris-laptop. ssh sets DISPLAY to localhost:10, tried changing it too

     @warbo !linux run on remote: `DISPLAY=chris-laptop:0 xclock`

     @harnir setting the display like that seems to run the command, but nothing appears :(
