Are you bent upon using ssh? If not, give vnc a try. You will be running VNC
server on your home machine. In the internet cafe (or from any machine for
that matter), you can use a web browser to connect to that vnc session. No
software to install on the client side except a java enabled web browser.
The downside of using VNC is that you will be using tons of bandwidth as
opposed to using say an ssh client or nxclient.
