| ImitatingReality | bye then? | 16:47 |
| DammitJim | I have a computer running linux hooked up to my tv | 17:10 |
| DammitJim | is there a way I can stream content to it from my laptop? | 17:10 |
| DammitJim | basically just use the TV as a big monitor from my laptop, but not connected to it via wires, but rather wifi | 17:11 |
| raubvogel | DammitJim: it depends on what you are confortable with | 17:30 |
| raubvogel | non-media specific solutions: X11 forwarding, vnc, etc | 17:30 |
| raubvogel | media-specific: set your laptop as media source and then have desktop with tv find and use it? | 17:32 |
| raubvogel | Access laptop drive and go from there? | 17:32 |
| DammitJim | raubvogel, X11 forwarding sounds like an option, but I don't know if it's the reverse of what I want? | 17:32 |
| DammitJim | Right now I can do movies and stuff from my HTPC server | 17:33 |
| DammitJim | but I want to pop up spreadsheets or just browse the web | 17:33 |
| raubvogel | Can't your htpc server see the laptop on network? | 17:33 |
| DammitJim | yeah | 17:33 |
| DammitJim | but I hate the wireless keyboard and mouse I have for my htpc | 17:34 |
| raubvogel | you can specify the port forwarding source no matter where you start ssh from | 17:34 |
| raubvogel | (-R vs -L) | 17:34 |
| raubvogel | I think | 17:34 |
| DammitJim | man, I'm being lazy | 17:34 |
| DammitJim | do you have some examples of how this would work? | 17:34 |
| DammitJim | I have 2 machines here right now that I could test it with | 17:34 |
| raubvogel | I can't help that much since I am rather swamped here, but something on the lines of "ssh -C -c blowfish -R 13003:localhost:13003 user@htpc" is what I was thinking | 17:37 |
| DammitJim | how do I tell my laptop to display a program on the server, though? | 17:38 |
| raubvogel | depends on program | 17:38 |
| DammitJim | man, I've done this before | 17:38 |
| DammitJim | I don't know why I don't remember it | 17:38 |
| raubvogel | ssh -X or ssh -Y might be what you had in mind | 17:38 |
| DammitJim | raubvogel, but I can't control it once it launches the application | 17:52 |
| raubvogel | Then how about something like vnc? You can have a viewer only seeing but not editing | 17:53 |
| DammitJim | yeah, I thought of that | 17:54 |
| DammitJim | but didn't know if there was another option like with X11 forwarding | 17:54 |
| raubvogel | There is a kinda of x11 meets vnc on planet Mongo | 17:58 |
| raubvogel | where it behaves like a Mac: | 17:58 |
| raubvogel | forward your main screen | 17:58 |
| DammitJim | if I forward my main screen, can I still navigate it with my mouse? | 17:58 |
| DammitJim | that's my thing | 17:58 |
| raubvogel | Well, your mouse is *on* the screen | 17:58 |
| raubvogel | no matter if it is only being shown on TV or laptop+tv | 17:59 |
| DammitJim | I want to use the mouse on my laptop, though | 17:59 |
| raubvogel | where is the mouse? | 17:59 |
| DammitJim | so, you are saying I can use the mouse on the laptop to navigate what is being shown on my HTPC that is connected to the TV? | 17:59 |
| DammitJim | that's all I'm looking for | 17:59 |
| raubvogel | Yep | 17:59 |
| DammitJim | like I said... I just hate the mouse/keyboard I have for my htpc | 18:00 |
| DammitJim | I just tried ssh -X dammitjim@htpc-server google-chrome | 18:00 |
| raubvogel | www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/ perhaps? | 18:00 |
| DammitJim | it launched google-chrome on the server, but I can't control it | 18:00 |
| zus | hello | 21:26 |
| zus | im reading this article on ssh and secure servers. my question is can i set up ssh or open ssh on my laptop and not need a server or a home server? and how can i keep safe when on other networks (coffee shops) or when sites arent https? this particular article is for a windows machine. can i have a link to a good (X)ubuntu how to please? | 21:31 |
| raubvogel | zus: I do not understand the question. ssh is just a means to connect to another machine | 21:56 |
| zus | raubvogel, im looking on google for tutorials and stuff to learn it. | 21:59 |
| raubvogel | zus: start with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSH | 22:00 |
| zus | i dont know why i almost never begin with this site...thanks | 22:01 |
| raubvogel | No worries | 22:03 |
