I am happily using SSH's X11-forwarding to run some applications and then the connection was disconnected.

Running ps ax from a new SSH connection shows that the applications are still running. How do I "resume" or recover the GUI for the applications to prevent data lost?

I would suggest that you look into XMove. I am not sure if this will work with a detached window, but it is worth a shot.

uhm, I cannot do sudo apt-get install xmove in my Lucid based Mint. The package is not there. Can you explain how to install it? – afriza Mar 11 '11 at 1:36
I would read over the installation document. However it appears that the columbia ftp is down, so I am not sure how to grab the package. It appears that you can grab the package here – Alex Mar 11 '11 at 22:18
