Title:
I cannot forward chromium-browser X to another display via ssh
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: chromium-browser
most applications are compatible with X redirection to another
display... when I access another machine via ssh with -X as parameter,
when I run a console application, I get the output to my terminal, as
expected, and when I run a X application (GUI) I would expect it to
show up in my local machine (the one I am accessing from). It works
for most applications I have tried, such as Firefox and Libreoffice,
but somehow, this does not happen with Chromium-browser.
It ends up showing in the remote machine session (the machine I am
accessing).
I have found out it also fails with Google-Chrome (related to
Chromium).
I am pretty sure is only occurs on certain occasions, when I have a
browser already opened in the remote machine, for the same user... so
I am not sure it was supposed to be this way, but the absence of
information in the running shell felt wrong.
