Help.
I've got a question for any "X" experts out there. Particularly those
familar with Solaris.
Here is what I'm trying to do. I've got a Sun Blade machine. I've
got a VNC session running. I know I can start up applications
within the vnc session. That's all wel and good.
With some experimenting I found I can start up other x-applications
from my Unix environment and simply export the display to the
VNC sessions. For example:
$ xclock -display w-tfw:1
The above will start up and xlock within the VNC session (pretty cool
I know).
However what I want to do. Is to change the display for a currently
running program. Lets say I have an xterm running in my unix
environment,
and its display is the standard root display of w-tfw:0.0. What
command
can I use to change this display from "w-tfw:0.0" to "w-tfw:1".
The affect of course wil be to 'move' an already running application
from
within my unix environment, into the VNC session.
Can anyone help me out with this?
I've searching through the FAQ and the knowledge base.. but I'm not
finding an answer to this yet. The closest I've found is this from
the
FAQ:
Can I remote the normal X:0 display of my Unix workstation?
Not with the current standard VNC distribution. Xvnc starts a
completely new X desktop (:n) which is independent of the standard X
display of the workstation (:0). You can often get the effect you are
looking for by starting an Xvnc session and then running a full screen
viewer for it displayed on :0.
We plan to add full support for this in the standard VNC distribution.
In the meantime, we've been told that Jens Wagner has a version which
polls the screen - see x0rfbserver.
