I just got a brand new Intel iMac, and it's working beautifully.
EXCEPT, when it comes to connecting to a remove Linux server over ssh,
and running X11 programs.
My problem is this: I ssh -X in (from X11.app's terminal window). If I
run simple programs (xclock, xlogo, etc.) everything works fine.
However, trying to run Matlab or Maple doesn't work.
If I run Matlab, I see the Matlab splash screen, as I'm supposed to.
Then, the main Matlab window opens. However, instead of seeing the
workspace, menus, etc., the entire window is just yellow/grey. Maple
does the exact same thing. The only thing that is correct is the title
bar of the window.
Interestingly, Matlab will *sometimes* appear, maybe 1/10 times.
I used to run Matlab/Maple over X11/ssh with my old eMac all the time,
worked flawlessly. On the iMac, not so much...
Any help would be *greatly* appreciated, this is really killing my productivity.

Thanks in advance,
