Hmm, certainly strange then. > What they all have in common it they all run debian sid (unstable) Ah, much to my surprise, I am able to reproduce this problem when remote-displaying from a machine running unstable. Or from etch -- but in both cases only when trying to display it remotely. So there seems to be some sort of a problem with how uae, and uae specifically, is handling xauthority information. There is some sort of a bug here, though it may not be grave and it may not be a bug in uae; anyway, reopening in the meantime so we can track this while trying to figure out the nature and scope of the bug. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
