As N900 has VNC viewer and we are able to remote control a PC with it , why N9 hasn't one ? But what about porting TeamViewer on N9 ? I know it's closed source and we need first the source from its developers , but anyone has tried to bring a VNC viewer on N9 ?

I always wanted to control my PC from any point of this world just like TeamViewer does .

have a look at :

but i suggest rdesktop for better performance :

Is zooming possible with rdesktop ? what is the gray bar for ?

I've added the rzr repo then I used apt-get install rdesktop but it seems I miss a dependency . I've also tried apt-get install libss11.0.0 but it says "could not find the package" .

let me rebuild rdesktop on newer ssl ....

thank for notifying this issue

awsome , thank you , why did you disable thanks ?

when you finish rebuilding maybe someone here could build an ui

I have tried installing presencevnc (a VNC client) from rzr repository, but I get after setting the rzr's repo and trying "# apt-get install presencevnc" :

"The following packages have unmet dependencies:
presencevnc: Depends: libvncserver0 but it is not going to be installed"

And trying "apt-get install libvncserver0" gives :

"The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libvncserver0: Depends: libgcrypt11 (>= 1.4.2) but 1.2.0-11.1osso5+0m6 is to be installed
Depends: libgnutls26 (>= 2.4.0-0) but it is not going to be installed"

Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?

Same libvncserver0 error here. Would really REALLY love to have presencevnc working on the N9 as it's was indispensable on the N900.

Almost done. I have installed "presencevnc" but when trying to connect :
$ presencevnc vnc://192.168.0.101:5900
I get :
"Failed to initialized GnuTLS: The gcrypt library version is too old.."
about to quit

The problem is libgcrypt11 from Harmattan is old, v1.2.0.

I have downloaded from rzr's repository the files below installed with dpkg :
# dpkg -i libtasn1-3_1.4-1_armel.deb
# apt-get install libgcrypt11
# dpkg -i --force-all libgnutls26_2.4.2-6_armel.deb
# dpkg -i --force-all libvncserver0_0.9.8.2-2_armel.deb
# dpkg -i presencevnc_0.0.0-0~rzr1_armel.deb

So it seems the solution is simple, to avoid the warning/erros messages :
" libgnutls26 depends on libgcrypt11 (>= 1.4.2); however:
Version of libgcrypt11 on system is 1.2.0-11.1osso5+0m6.
libgnutls26 depends on libgpg-error0 (>= 1.10); however:
Version of libgpg-error0 on system is 1.6-1.1+0m6."
we need libgcrypt11 (>= 1.4.2) and, maybe, libgpg-error0 (>= 1.10).

I have downloaded debian armel libgcrypt11 v1.4.5 but I can't install, conflicting with the MeeGo Harmattan version :
# dpkg -i libgcrypt11_1.4.5-2_armel.deb
