Export Display is not working on Ubuntu Gnome (gmd3)

11,812

Solved. The problem was with my DISPLAY number. I supposed that my DISPLAY was 0.0 but :

xdpyinfo | grep display
name of display:    :1

So, the export DISPLAY must be:

export DISPLAY=my_ip:1

    When I try to export the remote display I do:

    In my Ubuntu 17.04:

    xhost +
    access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
    

    Then I make the connection to the server:

    ssh user@server
    

    Once in the server get this error:

    user@server:~$ export DISPLAY=my_ip:0.0
    user@server:~$ xeyes
    Error: Can't open display: my_ip:0.0
    

    My gdm configuration is:

    root@my_ip:/etc/gdm3# cat custom.conf

    # GDM configuration storage
    #
    # See /usr/share/gdm/gdm.schemas for a list of available options.
    
    [daemon]
    # Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
    #WaylandEnable=false
    
    # Enabling automatic login
    #  AutomaticLoginEnable = true
    #  AutomaticLogin = user1
    
    # Enabling timed login
    #  TimedLoginEnable = true
    #  TimedLogin = user1
    #  TimedLoginDelay = 10

    DisallowTCP=false

    Enable=true
    DisplaysPerHost=10
