If you are using vncviewer, then I suggest using the maemo vncviewer rather than x-forwarding vncviewer from another machine. That's gotta be terribly painful!

You need ssh, vncviewer (from extras) and tsocks (from debfarm repository) on your tablet. Set up the /etc/tsocks.conf file as I describe in this post.

Tunnel into your Ubuntu machine with SSH, and forward port 3120 with a command something like:
Code:
ssh me@my.ubuntu.box -p 1234 -D 3120
then use tsocks to run the tablet's vncviewer as if you were on your ubuntu machine:
Code:
tsocks vncviewer localhost
I guarantee you will get a nicer experience that way. Most importantly, you will get right-click via hardware key and tap.
