Antwort: Reconnect to X session

2004-11-18 Thread Hermann-Josef Beckers/Kreis-Steinfurt
HI,


...

 I want to be able to connect, disconnect  reconnect the same as VNC.
 I can, and do use, VNC however the issue is that the Linux box runs at
 800x600 due to an old monitor while my XP Pro dekstop runs at 1900x1220. 
I
 want/need the higher resolution.

Why don't you use an virtual vncserver on the Linux box. You can specify
the -geometry as you like.

Yours 
hjb

This is not possible with X11.

Use VNC. As another poster already stated you can change the size of the 
VNC desktop with the -geometry WxH switch. 

check man Xvnc on linux

One more thing.  Looks like this issue was discussed almost exactly 2 years 
ago in this very forum...

Reconnect to X session

2004-11-17 Thread Junkmail
Hi all,

Searched the mailing list for this FAQ but no joy, so here we go 

How can I reconnect to a Cygwin/X server created X session started on a
Linux server (Debian Sarge) ?

How I currently connect ?
From my XP desktop, open Cygwin Bash Shell
Type X -broadcast
Get the KDM log in screen from the Linux server (only Linux server on our
LAN)
Log on fine and everyhting works (except for the clipboard but that's no big
deal)

Problem
Sometimes my wireless network temporarily dies and so my laptop loses
connectivity to the LAN. This breaks the connection to the X session open on
the Linux box and leaves an open X session on the Linux server that I can't
reconnect to. Also, sometimes I need to leave the office and take my laptop
with me. This forces me to close the X session on the Linux box, thereby
terminating all apps running there.

I want to be able to connect, disconnect  reconnect the same as VNC.
I can, and do use, VNC however the issue is that the Linux box runs at
800x600 due to an old monitor while my XP Pro dekstop runs at 1900x1220. I
want/need the higher resolution.

TIA
