Neat, I've never heard of Ubuntulite/U-lite. I also noticed:

SSH is installed by default on all Ubuntu releases, not sure about U-lite but sudo apt-get install ssh should do that for you, or check that SSH is listening using PuTTY on your other PC. As for installing cygwin and the like, don't bother - TightVNC is all you need. All the Ubuntu releases I've played with run an Xvnc server that you have to enable. Once enabled, TightVNC Viewer works with it perfectly. On a Windows PC, TightVNC is lightweight and -very fast-. -- Mark Lanctot Current: SB2, Transporter, Boom (PQP3 - late beta) Stored: Boom (PQP1 - early beta), SBC (beta - no battery) Sold: SB3, Duet ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55334 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
