@aa2k Nomachine NX is essentially an X server proxy. I tried it too and experienced different results:
NX works perfectly fine and fast if you want to connect to the remote computer with a new session because it starts a new X session, but the "shadow" mode where you can connect to an existing desktop session on the remote machine is broken in the same way as Vino because it's just VNC with a different name. Connecting and starting a new session defeats the purpose of a remote desktop session because it means you have to manually kill all of the apps that are running on your existing session, losing any unsaved work, then restart those applications under the new session. So NX is not a workaround for broken Vino: Vino's intent is to allow one to connect to an existing session and that feature of NX does not work on Ubuntu with desktop effects on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772873 Title: Vino is now completely useless -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
