I tried this (I had to use xhost first on my local machine), and=20 it sort of works. I get a lot of errors about fonts, and the Oracle=20 installer keeps throwing various java exceptions and not doing=20 anything, but I don't know if that's because of problems with the=20 installer or the X connection. The font errors I get are: Font specified in font.properties not found=20 [--symbol-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific] if you have any idea what I'm missing that would solve this... Thanks muchly, Ricky=
