Hello everyone,

I've Mathematica installed on a linux box and use it via a Xserver on
my Windows desktop.
Now I'm trying to use this GUIKit and the examples that come with it.
I've set the DISPLAY variable correctly
export DISPLAY=192.168.0.xxx:0.0
The Mathematica windows pop up on my windows desktop flawlessly.
But when I try to run one of those GUIKit examples, I get the following
error message

Java::excptn: A Java exception occurred: java.lang.InternalError: Can't \
connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY \
variable.
