unless you have X11 related stuff turned off in ssh config files, you can 
connect with:
ssh -X <other options> host
and the display var will get set by ssh
some folks dont like this for security reasons (see man page), but in a small, 
closed env it may not be bad

Hey ya'all,

Not sure how you guys export your display, but I just scripting a 
quickie that works great for automatically getting the job done

export PT=`env |grep SSH_TTY |awk -F / '{print $3 "/" $4}'`
export DISPLAY=`who |grep $PT |awk '{print $6}' |sed s/\(// |sed s/\)//`:0.

Just add this to your .bashrc file on the server you want to export 
from, and yer good to go.... jnbSA&

I mostly use command line, but use the gui once in awhile.
