<DIV><SPAN class=265480315-13022004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Either
telnet or ssh to your desktop machine from your laptop... I would recommend
ssh. Once connected to the desktop machine, make sure your display
variable is set to the desktop. At a command prompt, type 'export
DISPLAY=name.of.desktop:0.0'. Then, simply run mythfrontend and it will
display and run on your desktop. You can then exit out of the ssh or
telnet session and be back at your laptop leaving mythfrontend running on your
desktop.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Launch Mythfrontend remotely via ssh<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Can I launch mythfrontend (desktop) from my laptop so that it shows up on
my desktop display?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I imagine this is a linux noobie question more than myth, but perhaps
someone can help. I ask because myth sometimes fails to respond (ivtv
sometimes goes haywire). I've tried mythfrontend:0 but that wasn't the
magic word.</DIV>
