I need to select a remote console approach: VNC, RDP, FreeNX. The client system is my old Libretto 110ct that has only 64Mb memory, a 800x480 display and running D*^nSmallLinux. The target systems are all Centos running Gnome 2.16.0. I want to optimize client and server memory usage (and CPU usage). And to do a decent job of rendering the Centos Gnome 1024x768 (my standard seletion, it could be 800x600 if I must) on the Libretto. I think VNC is a non-starter. I do know how to run it over SSH for security, but there is no gain and much pain with it. RDP might be OK, though I have to see about xRDP on Centos. FreeNX looks best? So one thing is at least I should be able to turn off the local Desktop? As it seems neither xRDP or FreeNX are actually exporting the Desktop but giving access to the X-server? If so I might be able to specify the resolution of the remote client (800x480)? And any other server optimizations? I do run old hardware for servers, typically 256 or 512Mb memory, which is fine in text mode, but Gnome is a memory glutton (and Gedit is so much nicer than vi !). I do use Webmin a lot too... _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
