Title:
x2x sharing problem i karmic
To manage notifications about this bug go to:
FWIW: for me x2x works now the way it should, in Lucid, without having
to resort to funny xauth tricks (like I had to with karmic). So on my
desktop I just run:
ssh -XC usern...@laptop 'x2x -west -to :0.0'
and it does what i want it to do.

I just testet et in lucid too. It works like a charm without any weird tricks.
Ran:
ssx -XC u...@host x2x -west -to :0
This could be a Karmic only problem?

not sure I understand the description or care enough about that x2x
thing to try to understand it but that doesn't seem a gdm bug

Since the version of x2x haven changed since hardy (and x2x worked in
jaunty), it must be a bug in gdm. Or a change at least.
Please tell what you don't understand, and I will try to clear it up to
you.

gdm is a login manager, it just let you enter login informations to
start your session, it's not a ssh server or anything which should
impact on what you do over ssh on that box

Then I don't understand how David Boersma above made it work, with his
script by doing changes to gdm?
ssh -XC ${us...@${host} 'xauth merge /var/run/gdm/auth-
for-${USER}*/database'

You received this bug notification because
GDM is no longer storing the xauth info for the current login in
/home/${USER}/.Xauthority, rather it is using /var/run/gdm/auth-
for-${USER}*/database
As ssh uses the former for xauth keys, the x2x command run in the ssh
environment will not find the existing key for the GDM session.

x2x
not sure if that's a bug seems rather a decision from upstream, should
be sent to GNOME

@Brian, Claus: at ubuntuforums it was suggested
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309289) that this is maybe
(indeed) more a gdm issue than an x2x issue.
@Robert: I tried your workaround script and it works, thanks! I needed a
little tweak though; our network administrator assigned a
I found a way to make x2x work, I wouldn't call it a solution but it
points to what is missing when you get this error. The xauth authority
file used when tunneling X through ssh does not have the cookie for the
X server.
Setup:
- 2 machines, called 'desktop' and 'laptop' where x2x is run on
#!/bin/bash
## This is provided as a example of the steps required to work-around this
issue.
## I am worried that it will get less attention with a workaround provided, but
## someone is going to do it, so here it is.
HOST=laptop
USER=user
## Add the cookie for :0 to the xauth file
## NOTE:
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which
is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper
developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at
Thanks Brian. I don't quite know the bug reporting process yet :)
In this case I really don't know if it's a bug in x2x. The version
haven't changed since jaunty, so it could just as well be a bug in gdm,
or ufw for what I know?
