SUMMARY: Remote X-Display Problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Thanks to all for pointing out the fix!

I had searched online and didn't find a note to this information, but the fix 
is to modify the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf and change DisallowTCP=true to 
DisallowTCP=false.

Thanks again!
