Hi all,

I am trying to forward X11 through ssh between 2 linux (Both fedora 23 both with kde) on my local network.
It works well for all non-kde apps (xclock,xeyes,vlc,qvlc)
But when I try any kde app (Konsole,kate,dolphin...), nothing appears although the process is started as I can see it in ksysguard on the server side.

I also tried "export `dbus-launch`" without success, but the I get the error:
Code: Select all
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first

echo $DISPLAY returns the normal localhost:10.0

if I connect using ssh -Xv I have the following
Code: Select all
[hcooh@192-168-1-31 ~]$ konsole
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 3 win 65536 max 16384
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 38702
debug1: channel 1: new [x11]
debug1: confirm x11
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 4 win 65536 max 16384
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 38704
debug1: channel 2: new [x11]
debug1: confirm x11
[hcooh@192-168-1-31 ~]$ debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 5 win 65536 max 16384
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 38706
debug1: channel 3: new [x11]
debug1: confirm x11


and 'xauth list' returns:
Code: Select all

Is that too many?

Also, the username is the same on both computer, would that be an issue?
I am not too sure what to try next to find the issue...
Would someone be able to help ?

Thanks a lot,
Fabien
