Please do not set the DISPLAY variable manually, ssh should do that
automatically and set up an X11 tunnel for you if you specify -X, 
i. e.:

  ssh -X nesthor at labci3

If it still not works and 'echo $DISPLAY' does not print anything,
then please make sure that in /etc/ssh/sshd_config the setting
'X11Forwarding' is set to 'yes'.
