First, I’m checking DISPLAY by these methods:
env | grep DISPLAY
echo $DISPLAY

By xterm in single application mode, do you mean to start a terminal window from XQuartz?  Or do you mean to start an application from x2go using published applications mode?  Or?

When I ssh into the machine from Mac Terminal or from a terminal window in XQuartz, DISPLAY does not have a value.

I don’t know much about the different window environments for unix, but when I set TRINITY on x2go, I am unable to connect, I get the error “Unable to execute: start trinity”.  

I’m new at x2go and haven’t read any manual yet, I’m just trying to go for it.
