How about running startkde after you login from 'ssh -X?'. I know that if
you login w/ ssh -X and do 'kicker' you'll get the familiar kde taskbar.
btw, I'm using PuTTY v.52. Here's what I get:
[jim@localhost jim]$ startkde
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for localhost
xsetroot: unable to open display 'localhost:10.0'
[jim@localhost jim]$ kicker
DCOPServer up and running.
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for localhost
kded: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-13831' to 'kded'
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for localhost
kdeinit: Can't connect to the X Server.
kdeinit: Might not terminate at end of session.
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for localhost
kicker: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
[jim@localhost jim]$ kdeinit: Fatal IO error: client killed
kdeinit: sending SIGHUP to children.
KLauncher: Exiting on signal 1
What command do you think I should use for XWin on my X Server? I used the
following for the above examples:
$ ./XWin.exe -screen 0 1024 768 &
