[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] X Window export DISPLAY

[From: Armin M. Warda]

  Hi,

with the OpenSSH client on your Nokia770 and using X11-Forwarding 
(-X) you can display X11-applications running on other (Unix-) systems 
on your Nokia 770. 

Here is a snapshot: http://armin-warda.de/nokia770-displaying-yast.png
Yast is running on 'jojo', a SuSE Linux system, and is displayed on 
the Nokia770.

Is this what you were asking for?

Not everything runs smooth, it looks like the maemo's X-server lacks 
some features/extensions of other X-server. And there is the 
restriction, that the window manager of the Nokia 770 does not display 
an icon for an X11-forwarded window, thus you should not minimize it, 
because you would not be able to maximize it again.

The Dropbear SSH client does not support X11-forwarding.

  Armin.
