VMware will remote display via a X connection (or at least it used to -
been a while since I did it. Confirm it with the demo.)
It gives you some keyboard grab warnings, and won't do full screen, but
it did work.
No full screen, because the X client isn't usually allowed to grab
the root window on the local display, and the only keyboard messages
you get anymore tell you how to release input.
(And from what I remember of SW 4 off a SS5, its lots
better.)
True fact.
Bewarned, VMWare really likes their products, and
charges accordingly.
:-(
Oh, I dunno. The copy of VMware I'm running here only cost about
$6500 US, not counting the MS licenses for the emulated Windows boxes.
That's not bad, right?
