| Sep 2, 2012 at 12:33 | comment | added | makhlaghi | It would be easy for the readers if you could correct the command from xnest to Xnest. Thanks again for helping me understand the problem and the solution. | |
| Sep 2, 2012 at 12:27 | comment | added | makhlaghi | Thanks, it worked great. The capital-x was correct and the window opened up clearly. There was only one line on the command line expected keysym, got XF86TouchpadOn: line 120 of inet expected keysym, got XF86TouchpadOff: line 121 of inet that according to this question was nothing important and I ignored it with the push of an Enter. Thanks again. | |

| Sep 2, 2012 at 8:20 | comment | added | Bananguin | it may be spelled with a X (capital x). Try Xnest | |
| Sep 2, 2012 at 7:02 | comment | added | makhlaghi | I am using Scientific Linux, I tried xorg-x11-server-Xnest-1.10.6-1.sl6.i686. But even after installing it still says bash: xnest: command not found. | |

| Sep 1, 2012 at 7:00 | comment | added | makhlaghi | Yes, xterm works. | |
| Sep 1, 2012 at 6:44 | comment | added | Bananguin | does running a remote xterm work? | |
| Sep 1, 2012 at 5:58 | comment | added | makhlaghi | I am sorry if I hadn't expalined properly, I edited my question: both SSH commands do have a -X but still it doesn't work! | |
