X is not supposed to be run remotely ... the X _server_ runs on the
_client_ machines, providing display services.

Run X on your machine, telnet to the remote machine and export the
DISPLAY variable. Now any GUI based program that you run on the remote
machine, will be displayed on your machine. In most cases, this should
work:

$ export DISPLAY=display_machine_name:0

replace local_machine_name with the name of the machine where you expect
the display to come.

Sub : Installing joystick under linux                LOST #292

Several joysticks are supported by the kernel. See in the dir
/lib/modules/2.x.xx/misc, if yours is listed. To  check if it
works do: a) insmod joystick.o b) insmod js-sidewinder.o  (or
the module for your joystick). If it works then add following
in /etc/modules.conf: 'alias ..-ascii-..-15 js-sidewinder'
