remote xserver
« on: January 22, 2011, 11:00:23 AM »
Hi,

I want to run TC remote from another computer using a remote Xserver

Is this possible with Xvesa or do I need to run Xorg.

Thanks.

I connected used VNC using the following steps:

Installed dropbear and X11vnc extension.

Set a password using the passwd command.

Logged in remote from xp machine using putty.

Started x11vnc using:

X11vnc -noshm -display: 0 &

then connect to my TC machine using VNC.
