Hello,
Im a linux newbie and i just want to know how do i connect to a remote desktop with knoppix 3.3 ?
I have kde as default gui. When i enter ip address of the remote computer the connect button is still greyed out, how do i connect?
2. Is it possible to connect to a windows xp machine that has invite remote assistance enabled (terminal services) ?
Thanks for any help.

i've never used teh KDE remote desktop so I am not sure.

yes, using rdesktop (http://freebooks.by.ru/view/GimpIn24h/ch04-01.htm)
if you must have a GUI, there is a gtk based front end to rdesktop called grdesktop (http://www.nongnu.org/grdesktop.)

TightVNC should do remote desktop connection fine, but not sure how to go abt it w/ knoppix since it's booted off the CD(?).

I will try rdesktop first.
Im using kde on a knoppix/debian hdinstallation :cool:
One more Q are there any ATI drivers for my ALL-IN WONDER 9700 PRO. There dosent seem to be any for the TV tuner part :( (and the display aint up to pair with windows). If i could get my TV card work then i i dont need to dual boot into windows anymore!
Any suggestions on how to do with my AIW TVtuner?
Thanks for the replyes, this forum rocks!!
