[slurm-users] About x11 support

[Tina Friedrich]

I agree with you on that one - I'd forgotten about that detail. The 
having to actually do an 'ssh -X' before you can do 'srun --x11' is 
quite silly, and a bit aggravating.

You can do 'ssh -X localhost' and then try the srun; that should work, 
as well.
