You just need the client software.

Let's use mozilla as a reference.  You want to run mozilla off the
"local" machine.  Your remote laptop must be running the X server
software.  The local server just needs mozilla.

You ssh into the local server (that sets your DISPLAY for you if you have
X11 forwarding on) and run mozilla.  It appears on your remote machine.

You might have to experiment a bit to make sure your applications are
standalone... meaning they don't rely on any shared libs that must also be
installed.
