[mesa-users] Is it possible to disable PGPLOT? Easily and gracefully?

I am happily running MESA on both my office iMax (OS X, Ver 10.8.5) and my
MacBook Air (OS X Ver 10.6.8).  My calculated models run much faster on the
iMac than on the MaCBook.  Hence I would like to run MESA on the iMac
remotely
by logging in from home on the MacBook.

When I do try to accomplish that I get a msg on the MacBook the his of which
is PGPLOT cannot connect to the X server and the MESA calculation on the
iMac stops.  I know from conservations w colleagues that this is an ongoing
problem w Apple's OS's and may not be solvable by someone of limited
computer skills like me.

The on-screen plots produced by MESA are of course educational, fun, and
 valuable, BUT since I later on replot the results anyway, I don't don't
need
to see plots generated by the remote machine. Is there an easy way to
disable
the PGPLOT graphics and thereby have MESA run?  I suppose the easiest way
could be to disable something in inlist_pgstar.

I'll greatly appreciate advice!
