I cant seem to make any window manager work over ssh, but they all work locally. I am using Xorg now, and i didn't have this problem with XFree86. I start X with just xterm for testing: startx /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm and then type ssh -CXf my.home.machine twm in the xterm and it tells me it cant find any unmanaged screens. Ive no idea whats doing wrong because other X apps work over ssh and window managers work locally. Any help much appreciated. -- /Xian "Knowledge speaks but wisdom listens" Jimi Hendrix
