Does it work when you use ssh -Y - -X has not worked for many applications in
years (FC4-ish?) since it requests untrusted X11 forwarding subject to the X11
SECURITY extension restrictions (see man ssh and the discussion of -X/-Y and
ForwardX11Trusted).

Be aware of the fact that you are trusting the remote machine when you use -Y -
it is possible for a malicious user on that system to attack your local X server
via the forwarded connection.

That said though, this is working for me between f15 and older releases and vice
versa with both -X and -Y.

Desktop sharing works fine here in native gnome-shell mode. There are a few
visual glitches but it is usable.

Can you post the output? What release(s) are you seeing this with?
