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.

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.

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.
