Hi,

What do you have to do to get X11 forwarding working for emacs on a Sun
Solaris 8 box?

Other then installing the package?

Thanks,

Jeff

Are you connecting with ssh?  If so, make sure you use the -X switch
to force X forwarding.

First, make sure a simple application like 'xterm' works via your
connection route (presumably ssh?).  If 'xterm' works but emacs
doesn't, then are your positive your emacs was compiled with support
for X?
