[14:35] <explore> hey
[14:39] <explore> newbie question, when you install a vnc server on a ubuntu server, does it free up all the memory resources when you don't use it? (meaning when you don't log in via vnc)?
[14:40] <explore> cus i have a really old PC with low specs and i was wondering if I can free up the main memory when VNC isn't been utilized for that weekly administrative upkeep
[14:40] <explore> cus I just imagine that X Window and all that take up ram
[14:40] <explore> does it?
[14:41] <lotuspsychje> explore: vnc is a security risk these days, cant you do your work over ssh?
[14:51] <explore> can i forward vnc over ssh?
[14:52] <explore> i remember a long time ago it was easy to setup vnc over ssh
[14:52] <lotuspsychje> !vnc | explore yes
[14:52] <explore> lotuspsychje: so back to the question of resource utilization
[14:52] <explore> when i am not using vnc connections, i am hoping that X window and VNC server will just swap to disk and leave the main memory alone
[14:52] <explore> is that the case?
[14:53] <explore> or will they gunk up the main memory?
