Oh, I've got remote X working just fine.  It's just getting firefox to
actually run on the remote box that's the issue.

Sorry, I'm not a Linux guru and I may be off centre here, but ssh -X
remote.domain then at command prompt firefox opens up firefox on my remote
machine or gedit opens gedit or xxxx opens whatever X app. Running bog
standard CentOS 4.3 with no extra repos and all updates.

But what if you've already got firefox running on the local host, then you ssh to a remote host and try to run firefox there? For me, that just spawns another window of the local firefox session.
