"The wonder of you" VNC+rdesktop+diablo = fun!
 

Nothing new, just amazing on my investment - the Nokia 770!

I have 50G music on my living room PC and hooked up with a rack stereo. And I also have a PC hooked up to another rack stereo in my bedroom and I am lying in bed and too lazy to get up to deal with the stereo and I dont want to duplicate the 50G music on the 2nd PC to waste disk space.

I lie in bed, using my wonderful 770, VNC into my bedroom PC. From my bedroom PC then rdesktop to my living room PC to assess my 50G music. It is so seamlessly that I just cannot help but marvel with the Elvis hit, "The Wonder of You".

BTW, just for fun, thru the living room PC, which is now 770 VNC bedroom PC rdesktop to livingroom PC, I further VNC back to a notebook next to me, to copy URLs among the 3 PCs, it is kind of cumblesome and slow, but hey, it still works. I am thinking, would the whole thing crash if I VNC back to my 770, would it NOT :)?

Oh sure, I can do things one at a time, but just kind of fun to see the it may be able to chase it own tail!

coming weekend, I will jot down more details..... "The Wonder Of You"

It does not count without pic, here they are, see the rdesktop and VNCviewer box on the same screen from my tiny but powerful 770!


Edit: step by step guide on thread #14

When I'm done with playing, I just kind of closing down the windows, everything ran fine, except the winVista, it crashed, HA! the maemo, winXP, winMCE ran well, win Vista came to its knee. Yike!

I ended up getting out of bed to reboot the dumb Vista :(

One of these days i will learn command line and get vnc on my N800.

Re: "The wonder of you" VNC+rdesktop+diablo = fun!
 

Just cause the n900 is coming out doesn't mean any of the older tablets are now useless. :D Plenty of things you can still use them for around the home.

Re: "The wonder of you" VNC+rdesktop+diablo = fun!
 

Oh no. You do not need command line command to do VNC, step by step instruction. Post if question.

@Laughing Man: You read the subtle message. I guess the message is NOT that subtle then. Lets go out and have a beer :)

And I forget to make it clear on the 1st posting, the maemo/770 has NOT hiccup whatsoever during the whole 'tail chasing' exercise, no hanging, no wifi dropping, absolutely no nothing. I just cannot stop marvel at this little tablet, even comes with a 4.1 inch screen!

Where do you place the password on VNC? When i open it up there is only a box for the vnc server number?:confused:

Re: "The wonder of you" VNC+rdesktop+diablo = fun!
 

You will be prompted for the password only if the vnc server has been setup to allow authenticated connections.

From the steps above to set it up.
see step 4 (on VNC server)
4. On your PC, right click the Ultra VNC icon in the menu bar and select Admin Properties. In the Authentication area, enter a password.
