There is an appliation which allows you to VNC to an existing X-server. It's called, appropriately, X11vnc. There is a port for Maemo 5, but it's currently in the Maemo Extras Development repository. It's functional, but it has a few annoying quirks that need to be worked out (like hitting Enter remotely on the X Terminal brings up the virtual keyboard.)
but thats from home, all under my control... but how do I do it from work pc - as the work pc is all on the work domain

"Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems..."
It's great. I use it between my desktop PC and my netbook (both running versions of GNU/Linux, as it happens). To make the setup easier I use the quicksynergy graphical user interface.
It looks as if somebody ported synergy and even quicksynergy to earlier versions of Maemo, but I can't find a package for fremantle.

Synergy on the N900 would be *awesome*.

x11vnc works, but it seems too slow to work comfortably.

However I can not figure out how get maemo to display a mouse pointer at all times (and solutions proposed in this do not work). Makes it a guessing game if the application doesn't show a cursor... but keyboard works fine.
And you need to keep the screen lit (i.e. with the brigthness applet), as synergy doesn't keep it awake.

Hi,
I have used X11VNC and it works fine ... No need to worry it will not crash your N900
1. Install X11VNC from Extra-devel repository on N900
2. Install a VNC Viewer on your PC
3. Start the X11VNC on N900
4. Start the VNC Viewer and PC and connect to the IP address of your N900
and VOILA! your ready to go... You will see the N900 UI on your PC and
You can use your PC Mouse and Keyboard to control the N900
