TurboVNC works well with both 2D or 3D applications, but if you prefer NX, that's fine too. I just saw TightVNC mentioned somewhere in the thread and wanted to make sure everyone knows that TightVNC/Unix is a dead product and that we cover 100% of its features, since TurboVNC was originally based on TightVNC 1.3.x.
It sounds like using a custom build of Mesa might be a better solution in your case, since you don't need to run 3D apps in general. > On Nov 29, 2013, at 10:28 AM, Mirek <m...@ogrody.gda.pl> wrote: > > Thanks you want to look into. > I can't say evolution isn't working with VGL.
