Hi all,
Finally have a Mandrake 9.0 box up and running and awating configs for it's
new life as a "hopefully" soon to be print, file, NWN, internet sharing
server.
I've been reading and following the Linux article in Atomic Magazine and have
a hit a bit of a pothole. The magazine explains how to get Xwindows
displaying on the windoze platform using third party software (WinAxe).
Being a GUI lover and having more than enough monitor acreage, I was hoping I
would be able to get mandrake's GUI on my RedHat 7.3 desktop in a small
window that I could drag around.
The Questions are as follows.....
1. I have a dual head 7500 which feeds two 19" monitors as a single desktop
(Xinerama'ed as it were). Will Xinerama affect exported Xwindows Sessions?
2. I have enabled XDMCP in the servers /etc/X11/gdm file to = true, and I
have limited xdmcp sessions to "1" ( a bit of psudeo security). Whatelse do
I need to set up at the server end.
3. What command line and arguements do input from my "end" to bring up the
desired "window encased, drag aroundable" mandrake GUI?
4. Anything you guys have thought of that I don't know about (ie, HEAPS).
Sorry for the length of this post, there'll be more to follow I'm sure.
Please know that all your help is greatly appreciated.
Regards
Mick
