Can one remotely access an IPython Notebook without using inline plotting?

Viewed 4021

I'd like to connect to an IPython notebook on a remote computer (either via an ssh-tunnel or via https) and have the ipython notebook open a matplotlib plot in a new window (versus 'inline').

Is this possible?

When I attempt to plot without the 'inline' backend, the notebook kernal reports ' : cannot connect to X server ', and crashes.

X11 server is running on the client computer, and I enabled X11 forwarding using the -Y option when creating the ssh-tunnel.

Thanks for any advice.
