From: kkrish on 24 Apr 2008 08:35 Hi all, I want to work in GUI mode when I am working in remote login mode. If I give startx it does not work. The machine I am using to login is also a Linux machine. Thanks in advance. Kkrishna.

What is N here? This is important. If it's Linux, give the distro and version#. If it's something else, do the same. >> If I [do] startx it does not work.

XDMCP will work, but it is more of a pain to set up than other things. VNC will work, but it's annoyingly laggy in many cases. Using FreeNX is the best solution if you have a slow link anywhere in the chain. However, FreeNX can be a pain to set up on many distros. I thought that RDP was only really usable if the server was a 'Doze box, since the only RDP server available for Linux was a proof-of-concept that piggybacked on VNC and translated RFB into RDP. -- 207.

Working fine here and was pretty straightforward. Of course there are implications, also security wise, plus it doesn't fit to every use case. > However, FreeNX can be a pain to set up on many distros. Again it's just a piece of software and they don't document it for nothing. regards, An'I just RTFM to set it up'dreas

Since PCLOS is/was based on Mandriva, Mandriva may also have it, and possibly other KDE based distros. In PCLOS, it is Rfbdrake. Menu -> Internet -> Remote Access -- Rick |
