Luca:
I apologise if I was not clear. My goal is the following: my new board is
running ucLinux. It is a VME board. It does not have its own display. But
it has a gigabit ethernet interface. I want to run an app which will popup
a window on a remote machine, either a regular Linux box or Windows. I do
not care, whether the remote machine is Linux or Windows. Can be either.
I am probably confusing "server" with "client". I am sorry for that. I
just want to say that my board does not have any sort of graphics chipset
on-board. All what it has is gigabit ethernet.
I must confess I am not sure what is VNC. In good old days I used to build
my own PC boxes with graphics cards and run Linux on these. I still
rememer the fun of setting up X-servers and getting all the resolutions.
But it was 15 years ago. I did not encounter VNC back then. So perhaps I
am now misusing the nomenclature.
In any case, I described my goals. Can nano-X help?
Thank you -- Wojtek

maybe i misunderstood your situation.
if i remember right nano-X support some form of VNC server, but...
what's the benefit in having an X server on a display-less device?
Why don't you put a webserver on your board, and write your app as html
pages?

Hi:
This may be a FAQ. I apologise if the answer is already written somewhere.
Can Nano-X display on remote X-term, much like regular X would?
I have developed an embedded system without any sort of graphics or
keyboard. The board is running uCLinux. It has an ether interface. I
would like to run a graphical app and interact via x-term. Does nano-X
support such display?
If not, what are the alternatives to nano-X? I would rather not bring in
the full X-11 because my board may not have the resources.
Thank you,
Wojtek
