oscar-users thread) until after i sent this.  didn't understand the scope of

This is not necessarily true.  Some programs only work in trusted xforwarding 
mode (-Y) where simple programs like xcalc and xterm work fine with an 
untrusted one also (-X).

        If you just want to test an X connection over ssh, try to run xcalc or 
something else that has a GUI.  If you run xcalc and the calculator pops up, 
you're forwarding X properly.

        Is there any way to test for this before attempting to run OSCAR?
