how to setup "nohup" for remote X-session: i.e., it can temporally disconnected and later resumed in GUI mode?
Dear all,
I need your help.
I am a student who do research using Exceed to access Sun workstation in our
school to use Cadence EDA software. Due to Microsoft's security hole, they
frequently roll-out new security updates.
The system manager at our school has a software to automatically download
and push those new updates to our computer. The problem is: it auto-restarts
my PC... while I am running Cadence software remotely using Exceed...
This month I have a bunch jobs killed in this way by the new security
updates automatical restart! One of them I had runned for 6 days and it was
killed. I am very angry about this!
I know "nohup" can make sure that the process is running even if logout. But
how about Cadence software which has graphical output.
Imagine I use "nohup icfb", where "icfb" is the Cadence EDA software that I
am using, it has a graphical output. Then my computer was restarted, and
then I relogin, restart my Exceed, the "icfb" process is still there, but
its graphical interface is gone...
By the way, "icfb" is strange that it cannot be used "nohup icfb &"...
What can I do now? Please help me!

You can also run the software on a vnc server and use the vnc viewer
to connect to it.
Or, you can try and install a not-so bug ridden and reboot requiring
operating system and work from that.

start it up? If it just produces output and doesn't need any input...then
you can use Xvfb, which is a "fake" X display.
VNC, as others have mentioned, is a good idea as well.
Another possibility, of course, is to get a Linux box and not do the whole
Microsoft update thing. :)
