Yes, I have enabled XForwarding on the client on 192.168.1.129 and on the sshd on 192.168.1.2 X11Forwarding yes I've also run startx -listen_tcp. Whats wierd, is these are the only two computers it doesn't work on. Adding the xhost and setting the DISPLAY env var have worked everywhere else before wether on my network or not.
