shh -X forwarding problem under breezy

[Rainer Gutkas]

Hi!

I got two maschines in the moment running breezy, my Laptop a G3 
Powerbook Pismo and a HP pavillion PC. I tried to do ssh -X - forwarding 
today using to get the faster firefox from the pavillion to display on 
my Laptop:

ssh -X 99.99.99.199 firefox

one out of ten times I get:(firefox-bin:9981):
Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

the about tenth time I get a firefox window.
When I try afterwards to start applications native on the HP-Pavillion I 
can't open them. The same trouble:

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

So without using X-forwarding the Pavillion works fine and uses to open 
application quite well. I thought this could be of interest.

MFG,

Rainer
