I have two linux boxes, one has a very cruddy trident video and the other
one has a good card. I want to send my x displlay from the shitty display
to the one with the better display but i get connection refused by server.
Here is the exact error:

Xlib: connection to "kwesi:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: kwesi:0

Is there a config somewhere I need to set???

On machine that will do the displaying (kwesi in your case):
$ xhost +somehost

That'll work on most distributions, but if you're running a more
"secure" (read: pain) distribution like Debian then you'll need to use
xauth.
