Did you issue the export DISPLAY command?
ssh should do this for you automatically. After you ssh to the system
do an echo $DISPLAY to look at what is currently set.
You should most likely see something like: localhost:10.0
If you don't see that then try:
ssh -X computer1
and try the echo $DISPLAY again.
I think the problem is that you are setting the DISPLAY variable wrong.
