Just for sharing a nice idea:

I've installed with

# opkg install x11vnc

a VNC server in the FR gadget, created a small icon on the desktop like
this:

# cat /usr/share/applications/x11vnc.desktop 
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=x11vnc
Comment=Bring up x11vnc
Exec=xterm -e x11vnc -display :0.0 -ncache 10
Icon=x11vnc
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Utilities;
SingleInstance=true
StartupNotify=true

and can now fully control the FR from my desktop by just launching

$ vncviewer 192.168.0.202:0

even it accepts keyboard input, for example in the dialer, or any other
control using the desktop mouse as the styler; this way it's also very
easy to make screenshots for presentation, or even capture a session in
a movie with:

$ vnc2swf openmoko.swf 192.168.0.202:0

some examples here:
