Hi,

I am working on an HP 735/125, with VUE.  I want to use Mathematica on a
Sun 
which is using Solarix.  Both are connected using NFS.  I did the xhost
and setenv thing, and I have no problem running xfig, for exemple, on
the
Sun and displaying it on the HP.  But when it comes to Mathematica,
I get the following message:

   XMathematica: can't open display, exiting...

Acutally, I tried a few other combinaisons, and it looks like I can run
Mathematica on an HP and display it on another station, but running
Mathematica on a Sun and display it on another station doesn't work...

That seems really weird, doesn't it?  Any help would be welcome,

Olivier
