MoMo | what is the vnc package i want if I want to VNC from a windows box and control a live session on a mythunbuntu screen? | 06:44 |
---|---|---|
patdk-lap | the free realvnc? | 06:46 |
patdk-lap | or ultravnc, tinyvnc, ... | 06:46 |
MoMo | i'm not sure -- here is what i have ... the auto login for mythbuntu's default gui ... i would like to be able to VNC to it ... some of the VNC server i tried like tightvnc make a whole new session | 06:47 |
patdk-lap | well, vnc servers would make a new session | 06:48 |
patdk-lap | I dunno about the mythbuntu gui shell | 06:48 |
MoMo | forgive me -- but on windows ... when my vnc service is running ... i can connect to an already running session (for remote support for example) | 06:49 |
patdk-lap | but normally, you just go under system and select remote desktop sharing | 06:49 |
patdk-lap | and it sets up the vnc server for the current user | 06:49 |
MoMo | does it matter viewing from windows? | 06:49 |
patdk-lap | that is cause windows doesn't support more than one user, so that is the only way :) | 06:49 |
patdk-lap | the viewer has no control over that | 06:50 |
MoMo | so -- what is my possible soultion (creating a new session isn't good since i'm going back and forth from my desktop to the next room to my tv screen) ... the resoultion won't fit -- so my task bar is off of the screen =( | 06:51 |
patdk-lap | there should be an option in mythcontrol panel to turn on vnc | 06:52 |
patdk-lap | I'm just not sure, cause I never use that feature | 06:52 |
MoMo | yeah - i see it let me try it | 06:53 |
MoMo | it installed x11vnc | 07:07 |
MoMo | connect on port 5900 and it works perfect | 07:11 |
MoMo | thx | 07:11 |
