No surprise there....the W95 server, I know, is limited compared to the
Linux one.

I tried it but didn't have much use for it at the time since X works for
me. You run an X client on your host box, then you run the XVNC which
serves X to the X client and VNC to your workstation - it's a back-to-back
server... Of course, you will use the SVGALIB version of the VNC client -
not the X version - or you're back where you started with X on the
workstation.
I tried the DOS version but didn't compile my own (tamad) - it didn't work
on my 386sx since the available binary is compiled for computer with FPU.
I'm waiting for my bayaw to bring me over his old 286 so I can try the
GEOS client on it. I know, sobra na...
