OK, I had unsetenv'd it because my .login file on the remote machine sets DISPLAY to point to a different machine (my old workstation). What the heck, I'll comment out that line... and it's working? YES!!!! Thank you all for the hints. Now I wish I understood why this works and simply setting DISPLAY doesn't. Btw DISPLAY now defaults to the server I logged into; obviously I don't have permission to display on the admin's own monitor. Apparently ssh re-routes stuff back to the node I logged in from...?
