1. Make sure that
echo $DISPLAY
gives you something on the local host before forwarding.
2. It's possible something in your remote shell config is unsetting
DISPLAY. Try this:
ssh -Y remotehost bash --norc --noprofile -c 'echo $DISPLAY'
3. If all else fails, ask sshd what's going on. Start up a separate
instance for debugging on the remote machine on some other port:
remotehost$ sshd -d -p 2222
and then try connecting to it
localhost$ ssh -Y -p 2222 remotehost
and see what sshd has to say in the remote window.
