I have used the VNC Launcher activity (v3) extensively in training workshops to
project XO displays using a PC Windows computer with UltraVNC Viewer installed
(free software www.ultravnc.com) It is very stable and easy to use in
conjunction with an XS school server using the Eth1 network, either wired or
wireless. The XO being projected continues to operate as a full member of the
group so you can demonstrate network view and sharing activities, and also
anything through the XS, Moodle etc. To me this seems more authentic than using
an emulator.
A couple of tips:
· On the XO which you want to project, you need to make a small change
to a config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf to allow remote mouse clicking. Comment out
the line below by adding an asterisk in front, or change “Disable” to “Enable”
Option "XTEST" "Disable" # Mostly a debugging tool
· Connect the PC that is being used with the projector to the XS Eth1
network, either wirelessly or wired. On the XO that you want to make the VNC
connection with, get the IP address from the frame icon. Then start VNC Launch
Activity
· On the PC, start UltraVNC Viewer. You will need to change the display
area settings to match the screen sizes. Then enter the XO’s IP address and off
you go.
· Note that you have to restart both the VNC Launcher and the Viewer if
you need to shut down either one of them

Your question is somewhat vague. Are you trying to display the XO's screen on
another computer?
If so, you want http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Remote_display
