Re: [coLinux-users] VNC keyboard mapping issue

[Samir K. <sam...@gm...>]

u might want to use an X server like x-win32 or cygwin (just do
'export DISPLAY=windows_ip:0'.

This way the response is much faster as compared to using a vncserver.
Of course using a bridged connection might also work though havent
tried it out as yet.
