The ssh server must be configured to allow X11 forwarding. For openssh look in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the machine with ProgressiveMauve installed. After that, again for openssh, you almost certainly want to be using -Y instead of -X; -X asks for additional security checks that many older toolkits are not prepared to cope with, which will probably make your app crash. - ajax
