Hello, I'm trying to run xfig, but the version on this Fedora laptop is jacked.
So, I installed xfig on one of the FreeBSD servers, to forward over SSH, with ssh -X, right? I can ssh -X and run X apps on other Linux hosts. But here I have a problem: 10:10 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~$ ssh -X -i ~/.ssh/mito.key castor Last login: Wed Dec 21 09:57:51 2005 from cobra Copyright (c) 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1990, 1991, 1993, 1994 The Regents of the University of California.
