If I set the vncserver to run at 1440x900 I miss out on a lot of space on my monitor, whereas if I set it to run at 1600x1200 it doesn't fit on the laptop's screen, and ...

I swear there used to be a way in X to start capturing all terminal traffic to a file on your host. It may have been a HummingBird extension, but I thought it was standard.

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 ...

I'...

So I have this program on the MAC but I want two users in my team to be able to use this program, is there any way more than one person can VNC or remote desktop or something to the MAC server?

Hey guys, after days of finally trying to convince university authorities to give me access to a mac so that I can dabble with programming on it, I'm finally given remote access to one.

Doing the same on a linux machine without X but instead Xvfb the png generates fine but the colors are all screwed up. We tried changing the pixel depth from the default of 8, to no avail. Any other tweaks that might make Xvfb mimic normal X ...
