I am trying to ssh into apps on my n900 from my pc. ssh can't do it without xauth, i was not using sudo i was logged in as root via ssh. I tried just running things without xauth and the program loads on the n900 instead of the pc, so i tried

Code:

set display 192.168.0.x 0

and

Code:

export display

with no luck.
