Usage
Initialize with:
module load vmd/1.9.3
Note, that you need remote graphics to work with VMD. Due to the heavy graphics required by VMD, we recommend to use it through the Puhti web interface remote desktop. Please don't run VMD on the login nodes.
Note
For improved performance, you can now also run VMD with GPU
acceleration in the
Puhti web interface. In this case, select Accelerated visualization
instead
of the plain Desktop
app.
