#### Running CARLA off-screen
CARLA can be run in a display-less computer without any further configuration.
However, CARLA will render to the default GPU. This can be inconvenient on
multi-GPU setups.
Selecting the GPU can be achieved with VirtualGL and TurboVNC.
1. Install X-server.
2. Create a xorg.conf with `nvidia-xconfig -a --use-display-device=none` (first back up existing one if necessary).
3. Kill all running Xorg instances (`sudo service lightdm stop && sudo killall -9 Xorg`).
4. Check that X works `sudo Xorg :0` (it might be necessary to update nvidia drivers), then kill it.
5. Install [VirtualGL](https://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualgl/files/2.5.2/) and [TurboVNC](https://sourceforge.net/projects/turbovnc/files/2.1.1/) from deb packages (`sudo dpkg -i XXX.deb`).
6. Start CARLA.
