Hi there,

 here is the thing, I just put FC4 on my machine
(custom installation, basically I did not install
anything related to development, no web server, not
ftp, only SSH and mail server) Installation went
smooth, and everything is working great exept the X
windows.

Problem is the following: if I open a new konsole
window and try to start any graphical application lets
say 

>thunderbird &

it starts ok,
but if I do ssh to my own machine from the konsole
window opened, I can login OK, but I can not run
graphical applications from that session. 

some time (with differenr applications) I got message 
"cannot connect to X server"
sometimes program simple does not start.
[1]+  Exit 1                  thunderbird

What am I missing in configuration? Any ideas?

thank you

Ivan
