I don't know much about this particular topic, but you might check that $DISPLAY actually points to where the x server is running

On the server it should contain something like
localhost:15.0
On the client, check if it is set in the shell you start ssh from.
Looking at the error message you posted, I'd say $DISPLAY is not set on the server. Maybe X forwarding is disabled in the ssh configuration on the server? This could happen after installing a new version of ssh or a fascist sysadmin...
CAN I HAS FIXD CAPSLOK KEE PLZ?
