Group -
    We are using both SLES 9x and SLES10. I have set up my ssh to use

for authentication, and X forwarding is turned on for trusted
connections. (My desktop is Ubuntu Linux.) When I invoke an X-enabled
application (such as YaST2) under SLES9x, it opens in an X window.
When
I do the same under SLES10, it gives me the ncurses version. If I
try to
edit a file with gedit (Gnome text editor), it tells me:
" Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:  "

Can anyone point the way to remedy this challenge? What is the obvious
thing that I am missing

Look in /etc/ssh/sshd_conf and see if X11 forwarding is enabled.

Yes, it is, but it doesn't work under sudo  ("sudo /sbin/yast2"). This
does work on SLES9.
