  On SUSE12SP5, I am not able to launch Ansys Mechanical APDL. The launcher comes up, but showing errors in the terminal:
  "QStandardPath: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to ..."
  and "XcbConnection: Failed to initialize XRandr"
  When I do my selections in the launcher and press "Run", a terminal window comes up and immediately closes again. The tool does not launch.
  Any ideas how to make to tool run?
  Thanks in advance!
