I've been experimenting with the Jetson TK1 to help my ECE 472 students learn about different computing architectures. The Jetson TK1 has both ARM cores and a GPU. This blog posting will be updated as I continue to learn about Linux, programming, and the capabilities of this development board. Many of these things will be obvious in hindsight, but I didn't find a clear answer when searching online for this information.
1. Change this file to adjust the network interface from static to dynamic:
/etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0
2. Using this in a Putty terminal window on a MS Windows machine with Xming installed will display a clock GUI onto the MS Windows screen. The program is running on the development board, but is being displayed on the remote computer.
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:10.0
xclock &
The & makes the command run, and then frees up the terminal for more commands. The ps command will display running processes, and the kill <pid> command will allow you to close commands running without a dedicated terminal that can kill commands with the CTRL-C keystroke.
3. Using this in a SSH window on that same Putty terminal window will display the clock onto a screen connected to the Jetson TK1.
export DISPLAY=:0
xclock &
