title: CUDA Visual profiler over a remote X session
body: <p>I am running an Ubuntu 11.10 server, CUDA-5.0 with a GTX480 on it. I am trying to run the visual profiler remotely by using Xming and Cygwin/X on Windows 8. I can successfully run xclocks, but when I try to launch /usr/local/cuda-5.0/bin/nvvp from the putty command line, it just silently exits without any errors or warnings.</p>
  
  <p>I installed the default config of Cygwin/X with xorg-server, xinit and openssh packages. Do I need any more packages?</p>
  
  <p>I do not want to use the command line profiler as I need the global load/store efficiency, replay and DRAM utilization, which are much more visible in the visual profiler.</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone tried this before? I would appreciate any help.</p>
