I want to know if there's a way to run rviz remotely.

I tried connecting to the PR2 and I'm just trying to use the rviz (just for some test, because i could actually use it from my computer connecting through the master). I'm connecting with -X option: ssh -X user@robot

So, trying to use rviz, this is what I get:

rosrun rviz rviz # launching rviz

(process:27710): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:
//bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message

(process:27710): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:

QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.

Segmentation fault

Any thoughts?

Just a wild guess: Is there even X running on the PR2?

I tried with xeyes (actually with tuxeyes) and it works pretty well the X server (as far as I can see)
