This article is specially made for remote access during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Using https://view.uio.no to access the UiOs services
- For the best user experience, we recommend download VMware on your own laptop. Follow the instructions on this guide.
- When you're logged in, you should be able to find the instance called "Ifi workstation". Start the instance by double clicking it. See icon in Figure 1.
Use-case: Xilinx Suite
The full version of Xilinx software used in in3160 and in5200 is only accessible at UiO's hosts. To access the tools, follow these steps.
- Follow the steps in the above section.
- To access the the Xilinx tools,
ssh
to a IFI computer:
ssh -Y <assigned_host>.ifi.uio.no
See example in Figure 2. If you don't have an assigned computer or the assigned computer is overloaded you can use:
ssh -Y login.ifi.uio.no
Remember to set up the .bashrc
file as described here to make it work.
Special setup on LISP
To be able to program ZedBoards, and see motor and 7-segment display, do the following:
- Follow the steps in the first section.
- To access the the Xilinx tools,
ssh
to a IFI computer:ssh -Y <assigned_host>.ifi.uio.no
- In the terminal use the premade alias
zedboard-webcam
to be able to monitor the ZedBoard. Note: Only one user at a time can usezedboard-webcam
at a time, so remember toexit
when you are finished. - On the assigned hosts you should be able to program the ZedBoard. See example in Figure 3.
Alternativly, you can ssh
directly from your own computer. To be able to get GUI aplications running, remember the -Y flag. On Windows you're required to use PuTTy and on MacOS we recommend XQuartz. Not that we don't recommend this method as it depends on the setup of your local machine. Hence, we won't necessarily give support if you don't manage to set it up.
