On the raspberrypi.com site they had a link to a guy who showed how to set up your pi as headless. It had a decidedly windows bent. But that is OK because on the mac it is much easier :)
On the pi:
On the pi:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ifconfig | grep HWaddr
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr b8:27:eb:43:91:0c
# Take that HWaddr and then log in to the router and set a reserved ip address for that address
# I set the name to raspberrypi.localnet
On the mac in a terminal session:
ssh pi@raspberrypi -X
# This will allow you to run X back to your mac through the ssh tunnel.
# Prove that it all goes through the tunnel
lxterminal# Works but why use a lxterminal rather than the Mac Terminal program?
# run scratch
scratch
# Get a big blank screen and errors in the terminal session
