You want to access KDE software that is running on another computer.‎

Edit

Reasons can be * someone is running Linux and requesting support from you * you want to train a user how to work with a specific gui software * you have worked on your desktop computer and want to continue work in front of the TV (Simpsons coming) on your notebook‎

Edit

==Prerequesites== You will need the software '''x11vnc'''. For example, to install '''x11vnc''' on SUSE Linux, open a [[Special:myLanguage/Konsole|Konsole]] and type {{Input|1=yast -i x11vnc}}‎

Edit

So let's assume you want to access a KDE desktop session of ''user'' on the computer ''user-desktop''. Open a [[Special:myLanguage/Konsole|Konsole]] and do: {{Input|1= you@your-computer $ ssh ''user''@''user-desktop'' user@user-desktop $ export DISPLAY=:0 user@user-desktop $ x11vnc}}‎

Edit

The program x11vnc tells you where to connect. The line will read like {{Output|1=The VNC desktop is: user-desktop:0}}‎

Edit

Connect from your notebook: {{Input|1=you@your-computer $ vncviewer user-desktop:0}}‎

Edit

The "user-desktop" term may be the host name of the server machine if that name is configured in the "hosts" file on the client machine.‎
