<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Hi all,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">I'm working on a little cluster (<10 nodes) with hardware capacities.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">This is an old subject but I would like to know how to set up server nodes so that they can open X windows. Does it allow hardware rendering on the server ? (if compiled with openGL)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Is it better to use client/data server/render server mode ? In this last mode, is it possible to run the data server and render server on the same node ?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Thanks,</font>
<br>
