CPUs (2) 1.8GHz on dual processor mobo 3G RAM 80G local disk. XXX TB on the network.. I use kde as the normal desktop, which is a pig over a vpn. I keep two blackbox sessions, within tightvnc, going while at the office. the allows me to work from home(via vpn) without having to restart sessions or software all the time. bbkeys doesn't work within vnc but everything else does. blackbox allows me to be efficient from home, anything else was just too much overhead. I used to use icewm but the more recent versions of ice became unstable, at least within vnc. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
