Hi !
I have a small problem w/ X11 forwarding to my imac when using Jaguar
Vaio Picturebook C1 running Gentoo Linux 1.4-rc4
iMac G3 DVD running Jaguar and Gentoo 1.4-rc4.
XFree86 is installed and working (wmaker wm and blackbox wm)
(Exporting X11 via SSH works really well, when I use gentoo on my iMac.)
When I boot Jaguar (my OS I use for "working") and start up X11 with any wm, I can export nearly all applications (i.e. umbrella, dillo, mozilla....unameit), but not the "whole" wm, whichb is what I would like to do.

Would be grateful for any hints or clues where to start...(haven`t found anything in the man pages...)

Thanks for your help in advance...

Provided your X11 Server on the Linux box is running. You can do the following.
1. Launch Apple X11
2. In the xterm window after Apple X11 starts, type the following command:
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xquartz -query HOSTNAMEORIP_ADDRESS
Note: If you get a error, just paste the error message here. Good luck!
