I _can_ ssh -X from my SGI to the remote host, change $DISPLAY to my
SGI's IP address:0.0 and have everything run as expected (ie. no
crashes). If I leave $DISPLAY as it is set by default when coming in
with ssh -X, I get the same crash as I do on my ibook.

My question is: can anyone suggest anything I'm doing wrong? or suggest
other things for me to try?

Maybe your problems is related to the same problems I had to get X-forward to work with Apples X11. When I used Oribor and XDarwin, I had:


DISPLAY=0:0
export DISPLAY

in my .bashrc file. This did not work with Apples X11. However, when I switched to:

DISPLAY=localhost:0
export DISPLAY

X-Forward was suddenly working again.

If you use tcsh, you might want to set:

setenv DISPLAY :localhost.0

in your .tcsrc file instead of 'setenv DISPLAY :0.0'
