Install H2R Graphics
This process applies for any hardware and Raspian OS
Using SSH or via local Terminal
The prefered method is accessing the Pi remotely using an SSH client such as Putty. This eliminate the need for a keyboard, mouse and monitor to be connected to the Pi. If you are unfamiliar you can learn more on the raspberripi.com website.
The same procedure can be done in a terminal window on the Pi if you have a keyboard-mouse and monitor connected
