Thanks, Marc. That's a helpful tip. With Chrome/Android becoming very
popular on tablets and smart phones, it makes sense to have a nice
solution for that platform. I think Java would work well-enough for me,
even if it is slow. I would avoid using VNC on my little devices, but
would hugely value having the option available in a crunch.

You will need to look at Java-based VNC clients. RealVNC does offer a
Java/browser-based VNC client. These clients will be slower in
performance than native clients.
There are some other solutions that are being pursued by the OpenStack
cloud community that relies upon browser-based VNC clients. I'll
respond later with some info on that.

Subject: VNC viewer for Chrome OS?
On Linux or Windows, I'll use either the Free or Enterprise versions of
the Real VNC viewer through an SSH tunnel and both work great. I'm
thinking about a Chromebook as another potential option for connecting
to my Xvnc sessions. I see that Chrome OS has SSH available, and it can
do port forwarding. I also see a bunch of VNC viewer options, but they
are of a few different kinds and I don't know if they will work for me
like Real VNC.
Do any of you have experience with a VNC viewer on Chrome OS, especially
for connecting to an Xvnc session?
Is there any plan to develop a Real VNC (Enterprise or Free) for Chrome
OS?
Thanks in advance.
Mike
