If you have linux system running gnome-session or kde-session that you use to launch your shells or scripts from, then your X session environment variables should get set correctly as described in the Ubuntu documentation about inheritance of environment variables:

However I have seen window manager / hotkey configs that do not properly handle environment variable inheritance.

On a properly configure system if you open a shell you shouldn't need to set it by hand, it should get inherited from the environment that started your shell. What you should see on the local side is: $ echo $DISPLAY Xauthority, so trying that is likely just a desperate measure that won't help. There is rarely a need to muck with your. Xauthority file you may want to delete it entirely, then log out of your X session and log back in so it will automatically re-create it. On the other hand, if you are invoking the ssh command from a script or attached to a hotkey it might not inherit the environment that you expect, so DISPLAY environment variable on the local side might not be set at all.Īlso, since it sounds like you've been fiddling with your. you can always use the venerable xeyes for that kind of testing, of course! :) What is that showing on the local side? That should be easy to check if you're in a shell both by echoing the value, as well as starting an X app from that shell. On the remote system you have: $ echo $DISPLAY It also needs to be set correctly on the remote side, as well, but that value will be different on the remote side than the local side.įrom what you wrote it seems that it is being set correctly on the remote host (and by extension the X11 forwarding is being set up correctly by ssh).

How are you invoking the ssh command? Are you running it manually in a shell? Or is it being executed as part of a script? In either case you'll want to make sure that your local system has the DISPLAY environment set correctly. It see some cookies, and one of them is empty, another is MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1Īny time you're having trouble with ssh, the first thing you should do is run the client with the -v option to provide that output for others to inspect: ssh -v am going to guess that the problem is on your local system.
