Oops, yeah. Try "xhost +" on the client machine. This
allows *any* app to open a connection to computer2's
X display; that could be dangerous in some
circumstances, but I don't know much more about X
security than that; maybe someone else can advise
better. Anyway, try "xhost +" and see if that
lets you start the app.
