I used VNC on an old myth install a few years back, and it seemed to open a separate X session, and not relay the one that was on the screen of the PC.<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>-----------S</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On Feb 20, 2006, at 1:23 PM, Nick Gomez wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">I've used VNC for a number of years and really have found it to be quite useful.

For example, my wife wants to change what the kids are watching or<BR>select a different music playlist.
