  • MEGAN command line without X11?

    Hi all,

    I just install Mac OS 10.8 and it turns out that X11 is no longer part of the install. I have been running MEGAN via X11 in the past (command line), but I'm wondering if there is a way to run it without X11 requirements?

    I launch it in 'non-GUI' mode, but apparently it still needs a GUI:

    Code:
    ./MEGAN +w +s +g -x <commands>
    I have tried various combinations of +g, +w, +s, etc., but it always fails to run with the following (X11 requirement) error:

    Code:
    No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.
    java.awt.HeadlessException
    Thanks very much in advance

    This might work : http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/
    The XQuartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System that runs on OS X. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple has shipped with OS X since version 10.5

      If you are not trying to submit a PBS job for megan, you can try the following commands:

      ./MEGAN +g false -x <commands>

      Here is my terminal:

      $ MEGAN +g false -x "import blastfile=test.blastx.out meganfile=test.blastx.rma"

        Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
        by seqadmin



        The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

        Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
        by seqadmin



        Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
