It's a feature of KDE.... Otherwise VNC's have a hard time exporting a real GUI (as running on a graphic card)... But KDE copied Windows remote desktop (or was it the other way around?)
Well, sort of. Actually it's an integration of a hack called x0rfbserver that you'll find in the rfb package. That'll work on any desktop
But you would do yourself a huge favour by looking at the NX stuff instead of plain VNC. The performance is just so much better. There are suse packages available that work nicely, although perhaps not so polished yet (required a little laying on of hands to get running when I installed it), but the performance is so good that it really is worth it.
You get get the server and client packages for SuSE from the supplementary/X/NX directory, and there is a windows client available gratis on www.nomachine.com
Hmmm, what is the liscencing on the NX stuff... I watched NoMachine for years, they where allways the best, but too expensive for my tastes (well at least for my wallet 8-)... Jerry
