I'm trying to be able to SSH to a remote linux box and send commands to run programs on its local X window. In fedora, setting DISPLAY=0 and exporting the display and all the host jazz, I was able to do such a thing when sending commands to a running VNC session, but I could not get it to work when trying to send to the local X session...
I'm assuming that the display # I'm trying to send to is 0, but could that be wrong? Using the VNC method (and having VNC open remotely to check the results), vncserver set it to display :1 I'd post the code I used, but UVM's listserv software bounced my posts 4 times claiming it was spammy... so if this got through, good on me. I'm trying to set up a Digital Picture Frame that I can control remotely, since I'm not so sure I can get my ATI Remote Wonder to work with Fedora...
