Since the beginning of October 2012 I have been using KRDC and X11VNC to
run my desktop in western Canada from a number of places across the US from
east coast to west and in-between, very effectively.
On my home machine I run
x11vnc -usepw -forever -nomodtweak -display :0
and on my laptop I run KRDC, sometimes through an SSH tunnel, usually
through a wireless connection. Speed has never really been an issue except
when I'm using a shared-wireless link in some cheap motel that's using a
home-grade router. Then I just tell KRDC I'm on a slower connection and it
limits the colour-depth of the transmitted display, and maybe other things.
It's been a perfect solution for me!
