How to run VMD on tara
Introduction
To run the 
Visual Molecular Dynamics (VMD) software on tara
To use VMD's graphical interface, you must set up an 
X11 connection.
VMD tries to tailor its display to your local graphics hardware. We have seen a
problem on some Macs, where the display flickers to the point of being unusable.
Setting the VMDDISABLESTEREO environment variable in your terminal before running
VMD may address the problem
[araim1@tara-fe1 ~]$ VMDDISABLESTEREO=1 
[araim1@tara-fe1 ~]$ export VMDDISABLESTEREO
