The Internet->Remote Desktop Connection handles vnc protocol now. Just put in vnc:/server.nameOriginally Posted by SunnyB
ort in the pop up window. This has been part of the distribution since 3.4.
I got accustomed to using the VNC viewer in knoppix 3.4.
It was faster than the Remote Desktop connection app.
Now in knoppix 3.6 it is no longer there. In fact I can't find
a vnc viewer anywhere. Find does not reveal a vncviewer
that works.
Can somebody point me to it's location. If it was removed
from 3.6 what is the replacement application?
Thanks

Yes, I know it is there but it is slow and sometimes unresponsive compared to the RealVNC viewer that was there also. Since my client uses an UltraVNC server the
RealVNC viewer just worked better.
nxserver/nxclient, i suppose. Thats a free version of the nomachine software. If you give them a spin please report back how you think they compare to vnc. See also this thread.Originally Posted by SunnyB
I have tried to use the NX client in knoppix 3.6 but it won't connect to the VNC server.
The server machine is seeing and accepting the connection but NX times out with
an error. Can't connect.
The setting are correct as far as I can tell.
The IP number is OK
The port is 5900
The connection type is VNC.
Still it doesn't work.
Maybe I will try to install the RealVNCviewer from an outside source.
Thanks anyway.
How do I start up a VNC server on the knoppix 3.6?
This solved the time out error on my nxclient, set ip on client :
ifconfig eth0 xx.xx.xx.xx up
then run nxclient.
