This worked Friday

[Dazed_75]

I am sitting at the same machine I was at Friday when I did and ssh -X
fogtest and usd gedit to edit these same files on that machine.  Here is
what happened today (or most of it before it seemed to be looping and I
ctrl-C's out.  Any ideas why it worked two days ago and earlier, but not
now?

larry at triggerfish:~$ ssh -X fogtest
