Re: vnc btter than X...?


I guess I wasn't clear. I was running VNC in a remote X session. Proper would be to run a VNC client vs. an Xserver.

Default behavior for Fedora's Virtual Manager (KVM, Xen, Qemu) is to bring up the virtual system using VNC. VNC is a better solution for a virtual system console.

That was probably pushing things anyway as the proper way is to run VNC remotely, not in a remote X session... but I figured I'd try to break it.

    Why is VNC more proper than X?  I haven't been able to get
VNC to work, but X runs wonderfully.  What am I missing?  :-)
If it's really an improvement, I might spend some more time trying
to get it to work...

    FYI, I'm connecting over an internal 1Gb ethernet with no need
for encryption (it's an isolated, internal subnet).  So would vnc
any advantage?

    Sorta tangential to the original discussion, but thought
I'd ask...

thanks,
linda
