Hi,<br><br>Thank you for the quick response but actually this has been the way I have been connecting to ssh (i.e., ssh -X sam@server) so far.<br><br>I went down to the server to see if the same problem persists if I work directly on the machine, but the same message appeared.<br>
<br><b>X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication</b><br><br>Scilab started as it did on my PC remotely. When I try to plot it gives the following message: <b>NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).</b><br>
<br>Interestingly, the plotting is working though and I don't understand the importance of this message then.<br><br>But I cannot sit on the server and work but would like to work from my PC remotely. Is there any solution?<br>
<br>Regards,<br><br>Sam<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 25 March 2011 16:01, Sylvestre Ledru <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sylvestre.ledru@scilab.org">sylvestre.ledru@scilab.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Hello,<br>
<br>
Try to connect with<br>
ssh -X yourhost<br>
<br>
it should allow the X forwarding.<br>
