Use case:
- A does something on his box and gots stuck. He asks B (remote) for support.
- B logs into the session of A, sees all windows, A was seeing and is able to manipulate the GUI.
If A uses Windows it is very convenient to log into a running session e.g. via VNC. But if A uses Linux, AFAIK, this is not possible. Using VNC requires a "vncserver"-session, which is a sepeate session. You could get screen captures from remote by quering the X-server, but you cannot press buttons on the screen.
Is there some workaround for this?
