If I am not mistaken that doesn't work, as it would require a permanent network connection between the local and the remote machine, which does not exist.

I do think this relates to wine, as this problem arises from running  a typical windows app (GUI) in a typical linux setting. There also is this null display driver which I didn't knew if it helped in my scenario. The advanced wine faq already mentions some X tricks, and I would like to include this one aswell. But anyway thanks for the standard *NIX solution :)
