Exporting the display from a compute node to my desktop?

If you needs to export the display from a compute node to your desktop you should

1. first login to Stallo with display forwarding,
   
2. then you should reserve a node, with display forwarding, trough the queuing system

ssh -Y stallo.uit.no                       1) Long in on Stallo with display forwarding.
qsub -lnodes=1,walltime=1:0:0 -I -X        2) Reserve and log in on a compute node with display forwarding.

This example assumes that you are running an X-server on your local desktop, which should be available for most users running Linux, Unix and Mac Os X. If you are using Windows you must install some X-server on your local PC.
