Hi Robert:

I think you can do this, but it's a little complicated.  iSSH in 
particular has some settings, and the host machine also needs to be 
configured.  I think it easiest to first determine if your ipad handles 
X11.  In iSSH, there is heading called "general settings". Under that 
group there is a section called "X Server" (you'll have to scroll down 
to it).  There are options to turn on xserver, settings for the screen, 
etc.  Turn "Use X Server" to "on".  When you then ssh into your linux 
machine, try open an xterminal or some other X11 application.  You 
should get a popup that says "X CLient Connected; Display X Server"; 
click on "yes".  This should switch the window from your ssh terminal to 
the X application (grads display window, xterm, whatever).  You can 
toggle back and forth between the X11 display and the ssh terminal via 
the little icon in the top bar (the one that looks like the X11 X-icon 
brings you to the X11 screen.
