Just opening a X application on a different machine is not difficult.
Connect to the machine local
on which you want to start an application, but display it on your machine remote
.
you@local$ ssh -X user@remote
(login etc)
user@remote$ nautilus
Performance may not be as good as you'd expected it to be. When disconnecting, type exit
. If it hangs for some reason, press Ctrl + C to tear down the connection.
