X11 not displaying when run in ssh session Hi, I am experiencing some troubles with X11. I am using macOS (Big Sur 11.4), everything was working well until I did an update of XQuartz (2.8.1). From that moment, when I connect to an ssh session and I try do some graphical display from the Apple terminal, the command just remains stuck after an empty line is printed. In addition, I just realized that if I give the simple command "xclock" in the Apple terminal, it remains stuck as well. Regarding to this, I found an old post in this forum that suggested to set the DISPLAY variable as :0.0 . I tried, and I could run the xclock and related commands from the Apple terminal. However, I still cannot do it when I work in ssh and I couldn't find instructions about how to do this. There is an additional particular that is driving me crazy: this problem appeared to be fixed few days ago, when I connected to a new network and the graphic was successfully displayed. The day after, the problem was there again (same network). Any suggestion is very welcome. Thanks in advance, Valentina

Mojave screen saver Interesting problem with the Screen Saver function in Mojave. Several months ago I noticed two related problems. I’m using the Classic option pointing to a large file of about 350MB. When the display moved to begin the screen saver, the display went to a gray screen for 30 seconds to a minute, then started the screen saver photos. During this time, the computer was unresponsive to mouse or keyboard. When opening Screen Saver in System Preferences, no file displayed for also 30 seconds to a minute, with “loading” displayed. When the loading finished, System Preferences was usually frozen and had to be Force Quit. After struggling with this for some weeks, I reinstalled Mojave using Recovery. That fixed the problem but some days thereafter it came back as before. At this point I began to wonder if it might be associated with a Security Update. Yesterday I again reinstalled Mojave and without thinking immediately installed Security Updates -005 and -006. (Apparently Mojave restored without including these updates.) This time the problem was still as before. This morning I again reinstalled Mojave but did not add the two updates. The problem has gone away. The problem-free Mojave is 10.14.6. Can’t find the Build #. The iMac is 21.5”, Late 2013. It seems pretty clear that something in the updates is interfering with Screen Saver, probably with -005.

I searched on " (putty:32580): Gtk-WARNING **: 15:21:39.681: cannot open display: " Normal admonition not to use the quotes applies.

Lots of hits on your problem.

For instance: https://solveforum.com/forums/threads/solved-putty-gtk-warning-cannot-open-display.146155/

All gibberish to me but maybe it'll lead you to an answer.
