Try VNC -- just start up a VNC server, get some important progs going there that you will use alot (IRC,Email) and you can access them from anywhere. Really nice system. A good VNC for Linux is TightVNC -- which is pretty much the original VNC code from AT&T labs plus some nice improvements. The only thing I miss is being able to VNC display :0, which would be a really nice ability. Anyone know how to do this, perchance?
