I am trying to open rqt\_graph on my Host machine but it gives me the following error: QXcbconnection: Could not connect to display I tried to ssh using -y and -x but it still gives the same issue ---

Do you have a display on said remote machine? Rqt\_graph does require a display to open the gui element. ---

Sorry, I meant on the host machine, So in this case basically the raspberry pi would either need to be connected using a vnc or basically adding a display to the raspberry pi?
