You must source settings64.(c)sh from the area in which the design tools are installed. This sets up the environment to point to this installed location.

  1. To run the design tools from a remotely installed location, run an X Windows display manager, and include a DISPLAY environment variable.
  2. Define DISPLAY as the name of your display.

    DISPLAY is typically unix:0.0. For example, the following syntax allows you to run the tools on the host named bigben and to display the graphics on the local monitor of the machine called mynode.

    setenv DISPLAY mynode:0.0

    xhost = bigbenPC Clients
