I suspect a ForwardX11 problem in ~/.ssh/config. There have been reports of emacs failing where other X programs work. Try xclock on Kahuna and see if it displays on Mango. If it does, it's an emacs problem. I haven't seen it, though. You might find this useful as a checklist, although it's a bit dated. http://www.charlescurley.com/OpenSSH.html If all else fails, you can run emacs without X via a command like option. See emacs' info for details. But the X interface is better. > > Here's some netstat output when I'm on Mango.. > [root@mango root]# netstat -nlp |grep 6000 > tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 5160/X > > Here's some netstat output when I'm on Kahuna > [root@kahuna root]# netstat -nlp |grep 6000 > tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 24094/X SSH tunnels X; you might even close these ports with the firewall. > > When I'm sitting at Mango console I can ssh into either Kiwi or Kahuna > and run emacs with no problems. > > Any ideas? > > Thanks, > Zank > > > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
