** crossposted from r/debian **
Have four Sid machines here and ssh -X has worked fine on all of them for years. For the last two days I haven't been able to run graphical applications over ssh from any of these machines.
As mentioned in subject line, error says "cannot open display" and if I ssh into the machine $DISPLAY is indeed blank but from a local console $DISPLAY correctly reads :0
export DISPLAY=ip.of.ssh.guest:0 doesn't work either although it does set the variable on the host machine. xhost + also gives the cannot open display error.
Since this happened on all four machines at once I'm pretty sure it's nothing I did - but I haven't been able to resolve it yet.
Anybody else seeing this? Anybody got an idea how to resolve or which package to give a bug report?
edit: ssh -vv -Y user@ip.add.re.ss just gives "X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0"
