Xnest has always worked for me, both from other systems and from Gutsy systems - it is broken when connecting by selecting XDMCP from the GDM screen, rather than a nested session. It seems to me that during connection establishment, the remote Gutsy GDM now sends a response that the local GDM (no matter what version) cannot handle, but a local Xnest can (this is avoided by downgrading GDM as above). This is further confused by Gutsy as local GDM failing to connect to other remote systems that previous versions can connect to (which is not so avoided).
