I don't understand. From a command line, you ssh to another box and get
a command line. If you want to run an X app, use an xterm, ensure that
you are forwarding X (just using ssh -X may work), then run the X app
from that command line. The application will be running on the remote
CPU (etc) but will use your Xorg and appear on your screen.
