Newer eclipse won't X11 Forward

182 Views Asked by At

When I run Eclipse 2023-3 through ssh, the IDE pops up on the remote computer.

I use putty and Cygwin X11 on Windows to run eclipse CDT on all kinds of other OS's. I just built a jammy jellyfish Ubuntu 22 LTS and installed Eclipse 2023-3. Everything seem OK. If I log in through SSH to Linux and type xeyes, I get the eyes on my Windows desktop. That works. If I run /opt/eclipse/eclipse, the IDE shows up on the Ubuntu desktop. Is there something that has changed with jre or eclipse that re-directs back to the local display?

Thanks!!

I got the same behavior on UBuntu 23 LTS and Eclipse 2023-06 :'(

EDIT: Ok I found a work arround with putty : In the settings Connection->SSH->X11 inside the field named "X display location" fill it with localhost:0
