[slurm-users] Built in X11 forwarding in 17.11 won't work on local displays

[Nathan Harper]

In our case we are using Nomachine rather than x2go, but the same should
apply:

I connect to a login node (eg loginnode01) via Nomachine and fire up a KDE
workspace, open a terminal and ssh -X loginnode01 (so SSH back into the
same host), then srun --x11 etc
