[debian] fbvnc - need help

2009-02-22 Thread kimaidou
Hi list,

I am running hackable1, and I would like to control my laptop from my
freerunner. To do so, I can use vncviewer on the freerunner and load a
vncserver as x11vnc on my laptop. But I need a client running of the
freerunner which can scale the server images it get.  Now, I can see only a
quarter of my laptop screen.

I found only one package to do so, which is called fbvnc
http://pocketworkstation.org/fbvnc.html
I have find the way to install it on my hackable, though there is a binary
file for arm :
http://www.pocketworkstation.org/files/

I downloaded the http://www.pocketworkstation.org/files/fbvnc-arm-1.7.gz and
untar it, but then I don't know what to do. Could someone help me please?

Thanks in advance

Kimaidou

fbvnc is for the framebuffer, not to be run inside of X11 I'm afraid.

x11vnc does have a server-side scaling option you could look into.
Otherwise I don't know of any clients that do client-side scaling like
you want.

thanks for the answser. I am not particularly looking for some client side
scaling, just for scaling. I if x11vnc can, it is ok for me ! I will look at
the man, and post back here.

thanks for your answer !

I decided to look around a bit more, and found that gvncviewer does what
you want. I just installed it (from apt-get) and it works! Slowly. I'm
not sure why it is so slow.

There are probably other vnc viewers that scale... I hear that krdc
will, but you have the KDE overhead to contend with.
