Can I remotely access an IPython laptop without using the integrated graphics?

I would like to connect to the IPython laptop on a remote computer (either via ssh-tunnel or through https) and for the ipython laptop to open the matplotlib graph in a new window (compared to "inline").

Is it possible?

When I try to build without a “built-in” backend, the kernel kernel reports “cannot connect to the X server” and crash.

The X11 server is running on the client computer, and I turned on X11 forwarding using the -Y option when creating ssh-tunnel.

Thanks for any advice.

Yes, this is at least through tunneling through ssh.
