Does anyone know of software other than xmove that will enable a user to move his/her X-session from one terminal to another? (the apps would be running centrally, with thin client X-terminals). Has anyone worked with xmove?
I haven't seen xmove before, or any single program that does what you want. I have however seen the functionality embedded in the gtk-demo suite of programs. If you run gtk-demo you'll find a demo called "Change Display", that allows you to click on a window and move it to another X server (prtovided it's listening to connections, of course).
OK, that sounds interesting - although I'm after moving a whole X-sesion, i.e. all windows etc. I know "roaming" works - I've seen it at Sun here in Zurich a couple of years ago. All Sun staff carried a personal chipcard, which they feed into whichever X-terminal is nearest, and voila! their X-session is transferred from wherever they were logged on previously. /Per Jessen, Zürich
