Hallo people.
I visit remote directory of my linux box.
I want to run some X application for some remote file, but I get some error
message:
Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
My *Messages* buffer also tells:
Tramp: Sending command `exec ssh -q -o
ControlPath=/tmp/tramp.29890nH.%r@%h:%p
-o ControlMaster=yes -e none RHEL6-64'
`RHEL6-64' is the name of my remote linux box.
I do not see `-Y' argument in the ssh command. Is this the reason?
how can I instruct tramp to use this argument ?
best regards,

Which Tramp version are you running? Apply "C-h v tramp-version".

Michael,
I just found the solution on:
http://www.gnu.org/software/tramp/#Remote-processes
now it works!
sorry for bothering You.
best regards,
Paul

Well. That's pretty recent.

Likely, the recipe explained in section 6.5.1 of
<http://www.gnu.org/software/tramp/#Remote-processes> should work for you.
Adding an additional argumemt to the ssh call, like -X or -Y, is more
tricky. If the recipe above does not work, you could add a respective
entry to your ~/.ssh/config:
Host RHEL6-64
ForwardX11Trusted yes
Best regards, Michael.
