You need to run an X-server on the computer you're telnet'ing from. And you
need to set the DISPLAY environment variable to the correct X-server, which
usually is "xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:0".
On the machine you run the X-server, you need to give access to the host
you're telnet'ing into, with the command "xhost +yyy.yyy.yyy.yy".
