Hehe, I stand corrected. I suppose *I* usually think of it as more of a= =20 console administration app. Anyways, this is not a good solution if you= are=20 logging in from a windows or "other" OS based machine. You would have t= o=20 install a local X-server which may or may not be practical or useful. Additionally, as others pointed out you can tunnel X connections over S= SH.=20 While this is true the X protocol by itself is quite heavy and lag and=20 interactivity will be less than spectacular on anything less than 10Mbi= t.=20 This is why I suggested NX Server for GUI administration because it doe= s some=20 quite spectacular compression and caching I havent seen in other projec= ts=20 (though I admit I havent done alot of diggin on the subject, only raw X= ,=20 lbxproxy, ssh compression, and VNC each of which has its own caveats) > Cheers, > Steven > > > > > > > ____________________________ > http://www.basiclinux.com.ru > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbi= e" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs --=20 ---------------------------------------- --EB > All is fine except that I can reliably "oops" it simply by trying to = read > from /proc/apm (e.g. cat /proc/apm). > oops output and ksymoops-2.3.4 output is attached. > Is there anything else I can contribute?
