[McIDAS #GHE-647300]: McIDAS-X 2016 isn't working because...

Hi Gilbert,

Here are a couple of tests to run that might help clarify what is going
on:

- run McIDAS as the user who is logged onto the system console (i.e.,
  'sebenste')

  This should run with no problems as that user will own the X environment.

- instead of becoming 'mcidas' via an 'su -', try using a tunneled SSH
  login:

  ssh -XY mcidas@<your machine>

Again, we don't experience the problems you are seeing on any of our
workstations here.

Cheers,

Tom
