How to run VMD on maya
Introduction
To run the
Visual Molecular Dynamics (VMD) software on maya
Load the module
[araim1@maya-usr1 ~]$ module load vmd/1.9.2
then run the command
[araim1@maya-usr1 ~]$ vmd
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@maya-usr1 ~]$ VMDDISABLESTEREO=1
[araim1@maya-usr1 ~]$ export VMDDISABLESTEREO
