OpenSUSE :: SuSE To SuSE Remote Desktop?

Mar 5, 2010

What would be the preferred method to establish a remote desktop session from one 11.2 machine to another 11.2 machine in the same location? No firewalls, local connection only. I've looked at VNC, RDP with xrdp, have not been able to establish a session to desktop. I would rather not use desktop sharing if possible, don't want invitations involved. Want something similar to hitting from Windows with VNC3and taking over the established desktop session. This is in my house, no security risks involved

OpenSUSE Network :: Remote Desktop To SUSE From Windows

Feb 26, 2010

I have been reading up around the internet that although it is possible to use MSTSC.exe under Windows XP to connect back to a Suse machine running XRDP (I believe).I had been working fine with Suse 11.0 until today. I had not made any changes to my local network but now whenever I try to connect in, I am told that I can not start the session as the sesman logon fails!

I tail'ed /var/log/messages but there is nothing written to that log when I try (interestingly enough, I do get the logon prompt that requests username, password and session type - I usually select KDE3 but have tried all options - and get the error after clicking OK).

My questions:-
1. Is XRDP under 11.1 any better (more stable as when it worked, I use to get kicked out a lot under 11.0)
2. What log file should I be trying to tail so I can see what is happening?

I must use Linux as the back end, I don't want to use a hacked copy of XP anymore and don't want to pay �� for a real version when Linux is free and should by now be able to grant me access to my network from a remote location!VNC is not an option as I will be wanting to log on more than one user at the same time.

I am really a noob using Suse or any linux configuration. I have to work in a computer that uses Suse 10.3 from another computer that uses Windows.What I am looking for is for some programe that works most similarly to windows remote desktop or logmein.

SUSE :: Mounting Remote Directory On Startup On Suse

Oct 7, 2010

So ive got a Suse server up and running. It is connecting to a clearcase server, so i want to mount the remote filesystem as part of startup, as this is generally rebooted when im not around.I would normally add something to /etc/init.d and put the shortcut to it in the appropriate runlevel (in this case 3). Tried that. Didnt work.

Realised the init script needed to have the LBS stuff at the start, so put that in, and used insserv to add the script. I used required-start set to $ALl.This successfully created the init script with S20, and i eneabled it with chkconfig.

Ubuntu :: Remote Desktop Login To Gdm After Remote Restart

Feb 6, 2011

I maintain plain vanilla Ubuntu 10.04 systems for several friends. Each machine has only one user, the owner. I use Remote Desktop to instruct and to perform maintenance. Here's my problem:After updating the system, if the kernel has changed, a restart is needed. If I do a restart, I then have to phone the owner to insert his login credentials in the gdm login screen, before I can do anything else via Remote Desktop on that machine.There ought to be a simple way I can avoid the phone call and login myself.

I'd strongly prefer not to use any software that is not included in a plain vanilla Ubuntu 10.04 installation. And I don't want to weaken system security beyond what it is now.Is there a solution? Or, what is the simplest solution?

General :: Remove The Plasma Desktop In SuSE 11.1 And Restore The Original Desktop?

Oct 1, 2009

Is there a way in SuSE 11.1 to have the conventional desktop, instead the plasma desktop? I thought that installing KDE 3.5 will fix it, but I was wrong. I really don't want to download back SuSE 11.0, just to have my old desktop layout. SuSE developers should at least leave it as an option than to force people to install it

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Sony FP - No Display But Desktop Accessible Via Remote Desktop?

Mar 18, 2010

I'm working on getting my myth box hooked up to my Sony flat panel display.Originally the nvidia drivers could not read the EID, so defaulted to only 640x480 over my HDMI-DVI connection.I manually updated xorg.conf with a mode for the resolution I know the thing can handle. Suddenly there are several resolutions avaialble in nvidia-settings and it seems to be communicating with the TV, as it is now listed as a Sony FP display rather than a CRT.I'm able to change the resolution now as expected.my problem, however, lies with the TV itself. I can't seem to get it to actually display the output. I'm able to remote desktop into the box and can see Gnome logged in and everything.However nothing on the TV itself.How do I troubleshoot this? Am I missing something obvious?

Ubuntu Networking :: Use Remote Desktop Viewer To See The Desktop On A Windows XP Machine?

Nov 20, 2010

I have my main box, Ubuntu 10.04lts, and I am trying to use remote desktop viewer to see the desktop on a Windows XP machine. The machines are side by side The Ubuntu box is hardwired to my network router, and the XP machine is connected via wireless. Both get to the internet fine, and I can ping the Ubuntu box from the XP box. But, I cannot ping the XP box from the Ubuntu box, and Remote Desktop Viewer won't establish a connection to the VNC server I have running on the XP box.

Ubuntu :: Remote Desktop Without Opening New Desktop Session

Nov 25, 2010

I am using 2 PCs, both running ubuntu. I want to connect via remote desktop (vnc, ssh -X, etc) form one to the other. However, what the solutions I found until now offer me, is the possibility to create a new desktop session and view that one (or run an application an view that one). I have an application running on the server, and I want to see that application, without needing to restart it or running it again in a new desktop. Is this possible?

Ubuntu :: Minimal Desktop Install And Remote Desktop

Apr 8, 2011

I am trying to setup my HTPC. I wanted to have the most minimal overhead possible so I installed Ubuntu 10.10 server from the mini.iso and just added the ssh option. I then used the following command to give me a desktop environment because I will want to run firefox and it apparently requires this to run.

Here is the command that I ran:apt-get install xorg gnome-core gdm gnome-applets gnome-system-tools gnome-utils ubuntu-artwork compiz-gnome firefox sysv-rc-conf.The desktop works fine and I can open fire fox, however, the remote desktop is missing from the preferences menu.How can I install this? I would like to add the remote desktop option from a command line.

Ubuntu :: Login Through Remote Desktop And Show Same Desktop

Jul 19, 2011

I have set up a server running ubuntu desktop, and I'm able to logon through remote desktop (win 7). The problem is that if I logon from computer 1 and open some programs, I don't see these programs when I logon from computer 2.I logon with the same user, so I find this strange. Is there some setting I have missed to be able to see the same from any computer (logon through remote desktop).

Software :: Remote Desktop And Multiple Desktop Windows

Dec 14, 2009

I have VMware server installed on this machine. I also have a Windows XP VM running all the time. I have it bridged so it gets a valid IP from my router and such and is in my network. I use KRDC to remote desktop to it and I make it full screen. However if I want to go back to my desktop I have to minimize KRDC.

Is there a RPD client out there I can use so I can go full screen on 1 desktop and have everything else on another desktop then use KDE's Desktop switcher or ctrl+alt+arrow keys to switch between desktops to flip between Windows XP and Linux without having to minimize?

Software :: Cross-platform Remote Control - Remote Desktop Software

Jan 20, 2010

I've been using Linux on a more regular basis for the last two months now and have been able to find replacements for most of the software i use in Windows, or by using Wine. But i have one big problem that is keeping me from switching permanently to Linux. I frequently use remote control software to access and control my computers, both at home and to access my computers from remote places over the internet. I've been using NetOp, and more recently RealVNC. The client, or "viewer" part of RealVNC is working fine in both Windows and Linux. It's the host or server part that i can't get to work properly when it comes to VNC. The vnc.so module doesn't work on my system, x0vncserver program seems rather useless since it refuses to load before i have a network connection and this prevents me from start the program automatically as the wireless connection isn't ready and the vncserver command isn't an option since it doesn't display what i see on the actual screen. So, does anyone have a nice solution to this problem? Either to make VNC work or suggest some software that does. Anyway, it has to work on both Windows and Linux, in Linux it has to display the native x display, there must be built-in encryption and preferably be free or open-source software. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10.

SUSE :: Plasma Desktop Seems To Die

Jun 6, 2010

I recently made the final jump over to Linux and am using OpenSUSE 11.2 KDE 4 on my laptop while waiting for my companies to get new computers, which will probably be running Ubuntu.

So I've got OpenSUSE set up and running great, but twice in a row I've had strange crashes: Once last night and once today. It seems like my plasma desktop dies. This is what happens:

- Desktop 1 (my main working desktop) suddenly has a different background and I have no options to work with the plasma desktop stuff I usually have on it (I've got the Marble satellite picture of the world). Instead, all the icons look a lot more old-fashioned, like a friend of mine's GNOME desktop (not meant as a dig against GNOME, just an observation).

- The other desktops have a pure black background.
- My task bar and everything on it's gone - no clock, no programs, no kicker menu
- Alt+F1 doesn't do anything any more
- Ctrl+Alt+Delete doesn't do anything, to shut down I have to use the terminal

Things that do work:

- Alt+F2 to call up programs
- Switching between desktops with keyboard shortcuts (my pager's gone)
- Zooming out to see my desktops with Ctrl+F8

I've managed to identify the following factors that might contribute to the crash:

- Something similar happened when I shut down my computer while connected to an external monitor, but my desktop background wasn't gone and the plasma desktop functions were there, I just didn't want to bother putting together a new taskbar. The problem there (and this occurs consistently) was that, if I move my task bar to the external monitor and don't move it back before disconnecting from the monitor, SUSE leaves it there until I come back to the monitor again. THEN I can move my taskbar back. Workaround: I always leave my taskbar on my desktop screen. Maybe room for improvement in the next version? Like I said, though, this problem isn't entirely like the one I've got here.

- Both times I was making a system backup and saving it to an external hard drive. That seems to use a lot of system resources and that's when everything went wrong.

- This time I was working with OpenOffice Writer and suddenly my desktop, etc. was gone after viewing a second presentation in Impress. I was able to close down Impress, but Writer died when I tried to close and save. I still can't get the window closed, but it won't update either. I tried using Ctrl+Esc and that let me kill the process, but a couple minutes after that Ctrl+Esc stopped working too.

This time, the crash occured after calling up a presentation in Impress. Last time it was after connecting an external hard drive.

Ubuntu :: Can't Remote Desktop From 10.04 To 10.04?

Oct 21, 2010

I have 2 ubuntu machines. I used to use the ubuntu's remote desktop program to work remotely from home on my office box, but since I installed 10.04 it remotes in ok but nothing gets changed on the screen when I click. I see the mouse move fine. If I click on something and then drive to the office I see the remote screen was in fact clicked on with random windows open, depending on what i was clicking on. Why is the screen not refreshing?

Red Hat :: Which Software For Remote Desktop

Feb 19, 2011

I am aware that this is a very trivial question, but could not find a way to decide for myself which software to use for remote desktop on my RedHat server.

Through my searches, following seem to be the options:
FreeNX
RealVNC
TightVNC

I may have missed some other better ones too. Can anybody suggest which is better? I generally open graphics intensive software (such as plotting tools) on my server. So, I was looking for something which is quick. I used to have a Windows server earlier and the Windows Remote Desktop used to work just fine.
