Did you check if X11Forward is enabled on the client side?
Take a look into /etc/ssh_config. After first install, X11
forwarding is disabled. The reason is commented in ssh_config:
# Be paranoid by default
Host *
ForwardAgent no
ForwardX11 no
FallBackToRsh no
Just change /etc/ssh_config or add an appropriate line to your
private ~/.ssh/config file.
