yes, easy. login to your remote machine with X-forwarding enabled: $ ssh -X rpi2 pd -lib Gem OR $ ssh -Y rpi2 pd -lib Gem you can tell [gemwin] where to create the window using an X-window specification): [create :0( | [gemwin] you might need to actively allow the latter (via `xhost`). > > Or would it be possible to launch PD from the command line such that the > PD-gui client runs on my remote connection display, but the server runs > "locally" on the pi? yes, this is also possible, but usually much more complicated. > Incidentally, when a [gemwin] gets created, is it "owned" by the pd server > process or the client process? the Pd-gui has nothing to do with Gem, which is running solely in the pd-core. in this context, "client" vs "server" is bad nomenclature, as it is both confusing (X-server (see my actual answer above) uses client/server) and (sometimes) untrue (both pd and pd-gui can act as server (resp. client) with respect to each other) fgmars IOhannes
