Help with remote desktop login

Fri Nov 7 14:33:51 GMT 2008

Hi,

I was trying out the possibilities of makking my linux laptop a remote desktop login machine and activated remote login from the gnome login application, after this, i tried login into my laptop as a remote login server but it did not work instead whenever i restart the machine it kept on giving me the remote login screen and complains that no machine is listening. So, I cancel the remote login screen and it gives me gdm login, but it intermitently gives me the remote login screen.

I have disabled the remote login screen from the application i used to activate it but this prompting continues. I need help how to permanently deactivate it.

Thanks

David

Hello,
For my school, I have created an local network with a server (AMD Athlon 
x2 3800 mhz, 2 Go Ram, HD 300 Go, gigabit ethernet with Ubuntu 8.04) and 
7 thin clients : it works but the thin clients (those which are about 10 
years old) work very slowly (sometimes, one freeze). So I want to change 
my old PCs (pentium 233 mhz, 64 Mo) because the starting time is very 
long and there are very slow under Firefox or OOo.

I think that this Eee Box could be an interesting choice (and more with 
a linux OS rather than XP) to work as thin client.
So I would have informations about the EeeBox used as a thin client : I 
saw the experience (thanks to Asmo) with a EeePc but no one with EeeBox 
(B202). The EeeTop (or EeeMonitor) solution is too expensive for us : an 
EeeBox (80 Go) with a 22'' wide monitor, keyboard and mice would cost 
about 380 ? in France.

So, can the EeeBox boot on PXE and work with LTSP ?

Thanks for yours responses,

Thierry

Hi,
I found some infos here : 
http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=6149.msg36988#msg36988
I understood that the EEE Box can boot on PXE (this option exists on the 
BIOS : http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=5929.msg35861#msg35861) 
but there 's a problem with the NIC Realtek (RTL8169 NIC chip) that can 
be solved under LinuxMCE 
(http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Unrecognized_NIC).
Maybe is that problem solved with the new kernels ?

Using the EEE Box as a thin client is a solution that seems to me more 
and more interesting.
Have you some advices to give me ?

Thanks,

Thierry

Do you know if it is possible to get it without DD or harddisk.
