This article uses x11 graphical forwarding over ssh. Unless you are specifically learning about x11 forwarding and ssh for a class, it is far easier to use one of the alternative methods such as remote desktop or the matlab online portal. |
To access Matlab from a CSIL box from your own computer follow these steps:
- Open terminal
Enter the following:
Code Block language bash theme Emacs ssh -Y CoE_username@csil_box.cs.ucsb.edu "/ece/bin/start_matlab.sh"CoE_username: is your College of Engineering username
csil_box: is the name of a computer in CSIL, computer names can be found at the following link: What are the names of the CSIL machines?load balanced solution that should be used for all ssh classroom and lab needs for Computer Science. If you are not part of CS, use linux.engr.ucsb.edu- Enter your CoE password

| NOTE: If you are on an Apple device (iMac, Macbook, etc.), please make sure you have xQuartz installed and are running the terminal from the X11.app. This will allow the graphical rendering to be forwarded from CSIL to your computer's display. For instructions on installing xQuartz, please see: How to do X11 Forwarding on a Mac |
Alternatives:
- Use Remote Desktop to graphically connect to a computer and completely avoid having to use x11 forwarding
- Go to the UCSB Matlab Online portal at: Matlab Online at UCSB
- Install Matlab: Getting MatLab
