That may be better than my image of running the pi from an ssh login to it from the droid. Which is how its running now, useing the ssh forwarding thru all the encrypt.decrypt stuff, which is killing the speed. If all this can be put into the correct rc.local files, so it Just Works when the whole system is powered up, that would be very nice as it gets rid of one keyboard and mouse except when doing maintenance or trouble shooting.> No X server runs on pi.

Now all I should have to do is undo, from its own keyboard a change I made to /etc/ssh/sshd_config, reboot it again, right now its not accepting connections from at least 2 other machines.>Thank you Peter Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected where your X server runs. Applications run on the network and their windows display on the X server.> ssh loginThere seems to be no reason to use SSH.> If all this can be put into the correct rc.local filesSet environments correctly and then start X server on one system and the application on the other system. //Peter

Its $DISPLAY is :0 I'm at a dead end, I think I have all the i's dotted and the t's crossed but I cannot get a single byte across the link because the pi cannot open the display on the odroid64. I suspect it may be the display number, which is :0 on the instance running on the odroid46, automaticly brought up when I log into the odroid64. and an echo $DISPLAY on the pi shows: (after I've done the commands) 192.168.71.9:0 I have a hunch that is the error. Or at least the next hurdle. The .Xauthority file on both machines had grown to several kilobytes, so I blew them away, then discovered I needed to touch them, x couldn't create the missing file. I figured I'd start with a clean slate on both SBC's that way. And I did get a round tuit and put a power cord in the two pads next to that worthless coax connector, so now the odroid64 has solid power. Finally.
