Hello Rick and Matthew, X forwarding is fine, wireshark/vlc/xclock are displayed, just browsers (firefox/seamonkey/chrome) are not working. I have tried in the beginning with --no-remote (I knew of the switch), but the result is the same : [todor.petkov@fedora-vm ~]$ firefox --no-remote and it stays like this, no graphic on my display. I will try from another Linux workstation today.
