Does the box you command it from have X? You could then open the envy24mixer from the remote machine to the X server running on the "client". To enable X11 forwarding from the ssh client do: ssh -X user@host You might need to enable X11 in the server sshd config, in debian: add or uncomment the line: X11Forwarding yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config Sampo
