Actually, I cobbled some code together in the last few months that is making use of Xvfb -fbdir, this was to run a Window'ed xserver on OSX. I wanted to avoid the double translation inherent in using vnc, and didn't want to have 2 Xservers running (which using Xnest / Xephyr would have involved). .pdf _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
