Using Windows

During 2019, Windows 10 will be rolled out to all Windows users at UiO.

We have Windows Terminal Servers with geoscientific software installed. The Terminal Servers do not have any GPU installed so 3D acceleration is not supported.

Windows 10 laptops comes with DirectAccess. This will provide access to our shared storage and other internal services from outside UiOs network.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)

There are primarily two ways to gain access to files from lagringshotell.uio.no. You can either pin the network share to Quick access in the File Explorer. The other way is to mount the network share to a drive letter. There should also be a premade shortcut to the network location \\lagringshotell.uio.no\geofag on the computers in the computer labs as well as on our terminal servers.

When starting Interactive Petrophysics for the first time on an Instant Clone you will have to set up the licensing for this software package.

Sometimes when you change your UiO password, the Eduroam credentials does not update and you get disconnected. To solve this you have to "forget" the Eduroam network as shown in picture.
