first read 'man X' on your linux box.
The general idea is that two machine's running X can display everything on
both screens. Exceed is a X-emulator for windows. XFree86 is not an
emulator but a real (and FREE, and STABLE,...) X-server. You can tell
your own XFree86 to accept pictures from foo.bar.com by typing 

xhost +foo.bar.com (when you are running X of course)

and then telnet to foo.bar.com and if this machine is running X you can
tell it to display the applications output to you screen  by typing:

netscape -display you.ip.adress.com:0.0 (for instance)

all X-applications have the '-display or -d' switch.

Do 'man X' to read about the :0.0.


Have fun
