After "ssh -X" or "ssh -Y" (depending on the version of ssh), once 
you're logged in to the remote
host, $DISPLAY should be something like :10.0

On the remote host, /etc/ssh/sshd_config should contain:
> # X11 tunneling options
> X11Forwarding yes
> X11DisplayOffset 10
> X11UseLocalhost yes


Good luck
