I’ve recently loaded Ubuntu 9.1 server and installed the desktop.
I have a Radeon HD 2600 PRO video card and I managed to get the GUI working after installing the latest Catalyst 9.10 drivers (ati-driver-installer-9-10-x86.x86_64.run) and
following the guidance of http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide.
.
Everything apparently works as it should on the server. The desktop is displayed as expected and all apps work.
However, I want to run a secure remote desktop from my Acer 8930 laptop using Windows Vista Home Premium within my local network.
Following the advice in http://digitizor.com/2009/03/01/how-to-forward-an-x11-session-to-windows-over-ssh/ I have loaded Xming and putty on the client and openssh-server on the server.
I can use putty to open a ssh terminal session and successfully logon.
My problems start when I “startx -- :1”.
My log is as follows:

Lovely.
My xorg.conf looks like this :

My Xwrapper.config has “allowed_users = anybody” set.
My user account has read and write access to both .Xauthority and .ICEauthority.
“Xauth list” on the remote ssh terminal session produces :
ubserver /unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 9b4476fd0c44ad0803aa711fe7ded165
ubserver.lan:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 9b4476fd0c44ad0803aa711fe7ded165
ubserver /unix:10 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 20fdbb9ad4692691233db7374ebc100a
If I run “sudo fglrxinfo” from my remote ssh terminal I get
“Error: Unable to open display (null)”.
Interestingly, when I “sudo fglrxinfo” from my terminal on the server I get :
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 14
Current serial number in output stream: 14
I would very much appreciate any advice.
Many Thanks,
Colin
