List,

this is a bit off topic for this list - I need to get a remote X desktop
from a WindowsCE client running on WYSE 3350SE NC's.

Does anyone know of any software or replacement firmware for the NC that
may be avaliable? I was hoping some free Linux software may be avaliable -
there is talk on the Web but I cant find anything after an hours
searching...

Hi Jonathan

I propose to consult our nvidia HOWTO first.

  http://www.suse.de/en/private/download/x11/
  http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-installer-HOWTO.html

see section III. for

  SuSE Linux 8.1 /
  United Linux 1.0 (UL1) /
  SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 (SLES8)
