Listmates,
Which setting in Arch prevents forwarding apps when you ssh -X in an Arch box,
su and then try to start a kde app, etc.? X forwarding works just fine as a
user, but when trying it su'ed to root, I get the following error:
[23:29 archangel:/etc] # kwrite
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
kwrite: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
kdm config? X config? Any pointers/links would be appreciated.
