Running IDL remotely - problems with xwindows [message #64500] Fri, 02 January 2009 11:57

I've installed IDL 7.0 on a PC server running 64bit Fedora. This
computer has more processing power and memory than any of the local
pcs so I want users to be able to login remotely from their own
windows Pcs using a remote shell and access idl from the server.
For access from the windows pcs I tried unsucessfully to use Exceed
and therefore switched to using xming - an open source xserver
package. This appeared to be working well - the eclipse desktop could
be seen and display windows using direct graphics worked properly. I
cannot seem to get object graphics to work properly however. In
windows I just get a blank display window when I try to run the
Revolution application or the itools applications. I have made sure
that rendering is done by software, not hardware but that hasn't
helped.
Has anyone else come across this problem before?

Happy New Year!
Anne
