Hi Richard,

If I understand your situation correctly, you can use the CLI to
access a remote, running VM.  Alternatively, what I do, is I VNC to my
remote machine and use the GUI.

When I vnc a machine across a slow network connection I ensure all
eye-candy is disabled on the remote end and invoke `vncviewer' with
the following options:

  -encodings 'copyrect tight zlib hextile' -noraiseonbeep -compresslevel 9

HTH.

Cheers,
