This is getting too technical for me now; I always thought that this X feature is handled be the X framework itself and not by each single application.

Maybe Xomap simply doesn't support this feature at all? I tried to search google for further information about Xomap and remote X displays, but didn't find anything useful except:

These include the direct TCP connection support AFAIK, which is why
just exporting the display doesn't work.
on the mailing list here. (The thread is about the reverse situation, forwarding from the desktop to the 770, but nonetheless it's about X and TCP-connections.)

Maybe one of the developers could tell us more.
