* I keep getting a "QApplication::notify: Unexpected null receiver" message whenever I type the "kdvi lab1.dvi" command, which then allows me to type, yet none of the commands (besides "Ctrl C") will work. Thus, I am going back and forth, looking at what the previous command did, then having to exit out of the viewing window to run another code. To view again, I have to rerun the kdvi command. Is there something else I can do so that I don't have to go back and forth? Thanks! <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Rebsterjcfreak|Rebsterjcfreak]] ([[User talk:Rebsterjcfreak|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Rebsterjcfreak|contribs]]) </small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
 
** First, make sure you have the '''&''' after the '''kdvi lab1.dvi''' part so you still have control over the terminal.  Second, with respect to the null receiver issue - that will happen on occasion.  Just wait a bit for it to go away and the kdvi window will come up.  If you made sure to add the '''&''' to it, you can now re-run '''latex lab1.tex''' and, when done processing, the kdvi window will update as well.

{{Q}} I keep having PuTTY crash with a 'PuTTY Fatal Error' - 'Network Error: Software caused connection abort' whenever I run matlab. The program starts up fine and is slow but usable until it crashes. Any idea what is wrong? [[User:Nag9|Nag9]] 10:32, 7 September 2009 (EDT)nag9

** Sounds like the infmaous "[[MATLAB]] Refuses to be alone" problem - try the [[Xwin#xterm_works.3B_MATLAB_crashes|xterm works; MATLAB crashes]] solution on the [[Xwin]] page.  [[User:DukeEgr93|DukeEgr93]] 11:19, 7 September 2009 (EDT)

FAQ

  • How does this work with a router? DukeEgr93 16:50, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
    • See the main PuTTY page, specifically with respect to setting up tunneling. Even if you are on a router, the tunneling will take care of getting the information to the right machine. DukeEgr93 21:42, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
  • What does PuTTY stand for? DukeEgr93 18:20, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
