When I ssh from a Debian Linux VT (a tty) and then run Emacs on
the remote Solaris/SunOS, *yes*.

When I ssh (still, from Linux) with -Y to be able to use X, and
then run xterm, then *no*, the ALT key does not work as
Meta/Escape, not in xterm, and not in Emacs.

Without ssh: I will try this in a couple of minutes. Stay sharp.
