```
4. Restart the EC2 instance.
5. On start-up, run:
## Launching your instance
1. Make sure there are no Xorg processes running. To kill the Xorg processes, run `sudo killall Xorg`.
Note that you might have to run this command multiple times depending on how Xorg is configured.
If you run `nvidia-smi`, you will have a list of processes running on the GPU, Xorg should not be in the list.
2. Run:
Depending on how Xorg is configured, you may need to run `sudo killall Xorg` before starting Xorg with the above command.
6. To ensure the installation was succesful, run `glxgears`. If there are no errors, then Xorg is correctly configured.
7. There is a bug in _Unity 2017.1_ which requires the uninstallation of `libxrandr2`, which can be removed with `apt-get remove --purge libxrandr2`. This is scheduled to be fixed in 2017.3.
