  • use x forwarding, You will struggle with most apps still though

  • @exussum said: use x forwarding, You will struggle with most apps still though

    how? :(

  • He is talking about

    ssh -X user@host
    

    So you can run... let's say firefox from your terminal.

  • openbox + google://vnc

  • guys i am totally newbie in linux command.what os i need to install then what commend i need to put in shell.previously i installed kloxo,optimize it and host 4 site succesfully.now plan to full new reinstall for rdp.previously i use windows rdp.

  • with 196 it may be a bit of a squeeze for a whole environment.

    maybe use Debian 5 32-bit and
    apt-get install xserver-xorg

    then windows side install

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming/

    then in putty find SSH then X11 then check the x11 forwarding box

    I can get chrome to show up and not do much else on 128. 192 may give a better experience

  • You don't need the full xserver to forward X

    Just needs xauth, which probably is already installed.

    Despite your apps may requiere the xserver due to the dependencies tree, lol

    @st0rm911 You can do all this in any OS

  • i just try from this link first in my existing vps without new os.current os is cent os with kloxo.

    http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Installing

  • but getting error

    in commend # ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc

    -bash: configure: command not found :(

  • It seems that you need more experience in the command line. I don't know why you are trying to compile something when you have cool package management in your linux distribution (whatever distro).

    I used this template and it worked fine on the abduction plan in Las Vegas node..

    CentOS 5 - Desktop Gnome
    CentOS 5 with the Gnome Desktop preinstalled.

    you need to install a viewer like UltraVNC on your local computer so you can connect to your VPS.. also for reference this is a good guide:

    http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server

  • What exactly are you trying to do btw?

    Thanked by 1japon
  • @st0rm911 said: i buy vps from alien

    I thought they were falling apart?....

  • @drmike said: I thought they were falling apart?....

    My vps from them is fine now, they did have some problems recently, but all is well now (I hope).

    Yes it is possible. I did tried to install LXDE on my 128MB VPS and managed to do so.
    Anyway, I don't think RDP will be really possible..

    Follow this guide: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:ginE8LMR5rsJ:wiki.lxde.org/en/Debian+lxde+debian&cd=2&hl=zh-TW&ct=clnk&gl=hk
    (Their website are often down)

    First, reinstall your VPS with a Debian 5 template. Then SSH into it, and read the tutorial line-by-line. I think you might want to install the minimal one (aptitude install --without-recommends lxde-core) and in case you saw errors like "aptitude: command not found", replace EVERY aptitude with apt-get and it should work.

    After that, do apt-get -y install tightvncserver. Then, run tightvncserver whenever you want to connect to it. On the first time you prompt it, you will be asked to input a password and the VNC URL(?) will be given to you. You then can use your favourite VNC client to connect to your VPS.

  • @klikli Sorry but Debian 5 support is about the be discontinued (already it is the "oldstable").
    Use Debian 6.

  • @yomero said: @klikli Sorry but Debian 5 support is about the be discontinued (already it is the "oldstable").

    Use Debian 6.

    Somehow I realized those outdated package consumes less emmory on Lenny. Anyway I take your point.
