Let's try the simple stuff first:
After getting this error.
% echo $DISPLAY
If it says /dev/pts/0 or something like that, there is your problem.
DISPLAY should be set to sshremotehost:Number.0.
If you are connecting from foo.com to foo.net, on foo.net the DISPLAY
after logging in should be set to something like "foo.net:10.0". The
number 10 in this case should be a number chosen by SSH. My guess is that
you are running something in your login scripts that is changing the
DISPLAY to something stupid.
