Instructions for setting up a remote X11 connection to the VLSI Teaching machines

http://www.ee.columbia.edu/systems/x11.html

Remote students need the ability to remotely run the design tools on our VLSI/CISL Teaching machines in Mudd 12th floor. This involves setting up an ssh connection to the machines and running an Xserver on your system. Instructions are at http://www.ee.columbia.edu/systems/x11.html

Make sure your are confident you have a sufficiently fast internet connection (broadband). Make sure you understand the use of ssh & X11 before you register for this course as a remote student.

We will not be able to help you setting up that connection since it is too specific to your particular computing setup and internet connection.
