Hi Rolf,
Thanks for that. There is still one minor problem, though. The
xwindow is getting spawned on the remote machine and not on my local
machine. It now looks like,
mpirun --prefix /usr/local -hostfile machines -x DISPLAY -x PATH -np 2
xterm -e gdb peruse_ex1
Please let me know what i can do to have it displayed on my
machine. I have the DISPLAY variable set to 0.0 on both the machines and I
am ssh-ing into the other machine by using the -X switch.
Thanks,
Krishna Chaitanya
