I don't think the firewall is blocking it. I have my router's firewall, but it shouldn't if I'm working on my lan.

I started Ubunutu. I opened Ubuntu's termial and I typed: xhost +.
Then, on n900's terminal I wrote: export DISPLAY=192.168.1.114:0 . I expected what Spanner wrote: to see my N900 displaied on my Ubuntu machine.

I did that too and couldn't get it to work. There's no firewall issue and I regularly export windows from other linuxes to my laptop, so it's nothing like X with "nolisten tcp" here.

I try it that way. On my laptop:

Code:
[patola@ubuntola patola]% xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
[patola@ubuntola patola]%
On the N900:
Code:
[user@n900 user]% export DISPLAY=10.0.1.103:0
[user@n900 user]% osso-xterm
[user@n900 user]% hildon-application-manager
[user@n900 user]% camera-ui
[user@n900 user]%
And no command works. They just take a second then return to the prompt. Note that if I try an invalid DISPLAY destination it works the same way, so it might not be recognizing my laptop's X server:

Code:
[user@n900 user]% export DISPLAY=10.0.1.150:0
[user@n900 user]% osso-xterm
[user@n900 user]%
I even thought it could be a network issue but then I've set up a point-to-point connection via USB to my N900 and even then it didn't work. I can ssh back and forth to my laptop or N900 with no problems.
