This is not the case here - I have dozens of folks running personal workstations, all running CentOS natively, and *not* dual boot, so it is Linux drivers that have to work.
Still a separate issue from running thunderbird or any other single app remotely. From your workstation, does 'ssh -Y rh_6_box thunderbird' do something reasonable?
