How did you install the VNC server ? (hopefully not "apt-get", as this
is not available on the QNAP).
on X-based systems it simulates an X server so doesn't need a frame
buffer etc.
I did not know that. ( Supposedly I was mislead by what I found out
about VNC on Windows.) This suggests that on Linux, VNC might not be
slower or more memory hungry than NX.... Great !
Simulated framebuffers are noting new:
Yep. Its obvious how they work, but they might be memory hungry and slow
when it comes to X, as the full X server needs to be installed and run
on the target.
Her NX and (as you just made me know) VNC is better.
