The display connection on the remote machine can't be opened: 'Can't open display: :0'. If you run 'xdpyinfo -display :0' on the remote machine it will probably fail as well. Try to get it running before proceeding. > I ran "xhost + " on the second machine, but I still get the same > error. With second machine you mean the remote machine, were the failure is reported from eqPly? If not - you have to open access to this X-Server, either via logging in and opening it, or through a X-server configuration option. > > > I know I ran this example once (thanks to Stefan ;) ) while I was > directly logged in to both machines, but I guess it also has to work > with only an ssh -X connection to the machine running the server. ssh -X sets up $DISPLAY and tunnels the X protocol stream to your local machine. Explicitly specifying a device in the pipe's config section causes the local display to be used - which has to be accessible.
