Whoa this is way beyond me I think...can you direct me to a howto or the
like.

X11 over SSH good lord....i'm out of touch with *NIX..
Am i to understand that i could run a pretty nice (not gnome or kde) but one
of the less intense interfaces over ssh (this is on an internal network so
connection speed isn't an issue.

6 years, and I have admin alzheimers'   

Thanks 

Gary

You should be able to run X clients on the remote machine easily
via ssh.  There's no requirement for video cards, only that the
