I'm having a problem with X11 crashing with a certain remote app.
X11 works fine remotely with xcalc, xclock, etc. The crashing app
works fine using Cygwin in Windows XP. I believe the app uses Java.
Here are some of the log entries and so forth.
Exact behavior:
Open X11 Terminal.
ssh -Y root@srvrname
tpssm (or SMclient... they are both storage managers)
The splash screen appears for the application.
Then, the terminal window disappears and X11 crashes.
Happens every time.
I've sometimes seen this (but usually just the application crashes) when
trying to run KDE applications from Linux machines remotely. Something
about quartz which confuses the KDE application's attempt to integrate
with a KDE environment if it exists.
Apart from that, nothing makes X11 so unstable (or runs so badly) as
running java applications remotely. This is independent of which
platform the X server runs on (Linux, Mac, whatever). There are a
couple of applications which I simply run in vnc servers on the remote
machines and then connect to that.

When in fear and when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.
