Linux Desktop: introduction

Linux Desktop is developped as an open source project. Linux console (the black screen) is available when you connect to the cluster, but with limited graphic capabilities.

Why and when using it?ΒΆ

Our solution is not meant for everyday use: we simply do not have the resources for it. Remember that all jobs will run on a single node, with 128 cores, and 512GB RAM.

As a consequence, we ask you to use this resource when you need graphics, for instance for IGV, JuiceBox, etc.
