draw fails in remote ascii terminals

Hello,
  How do I get draw to export graphics windows in remote maxima?

  I want to use maxima on remote servers.

Here is the output on the terminal from

(%i1) draw2d(explicit(x^2,x,-1,1));
(%o1)                          [gr2d(explicit)]
(%i2)

So, it looks as if the graphics is generated.  But, there is no display 
on the remote machine.
  Both plot2d and gnuplot work as expected.

So, for instance

(%i2) plot2d(x^2,[x,-1,1]);

opens a graphics window and draws the parabola as expected.

Is there a setting that has to be used for remote display?

Here is the system info:
