Its the /etc/ssh/sshd_config daemon file not the client config.. Restart
the sshd daemon and made a new ssh connection to this system. 

service sshd restart

You are right I did not read the release notes, but after
reading this part:

"   In addition, OpenSSH is no longer configured to request X11
forwarding by
   default when connecting to servers. To enable X11 forwarding, the -X
or -Y
   option must be specified, or the ForwardX11 option must be enabled in
the
   ~/.ssh/config file.

   The behavior of ssh clients that are invoked with the -X flag has
changed.
   In OpenSSH 3.8 and later, X11 forwarding is performed in a way that
   applications run as untrusted clients by default. Previously, X11
   forwarding was performed so that applications always ran as trusted
   clients. Some applications may not function properly when run as
untrusted
   clients. To forward X11 so that applications are run as trusted
clients,
   invoke ssh with the -Y flag instead of the -X flag, or set
   ForwardX11Trusted in the ~/.ssh/config file.
"

I put ;

ForwardX11 yes

into /etc/ssh/ssh_config shouldn't this work?

I will try "-Y" but I also tried "-X" and it didn't work either.
