this message is basically harmless. to get rid of it, you can either tell your ssh client to not request X11 forwarding (put 'ForwardX11 no' in /etc/ssh/ssh_config or ~/.ssh/config); or you can add the xbase-clients package to your server and that'd let you run X11 apps from your server on your client's display. up to you which one you do... -thomas ps. when's Opera for Debian coming out? ;) ......
