Hey all --
I run VNC tunneled through SSH to connect to my home machine when I'm at work or at school. It works wonderfully but I had one question: is it possible to swtich the virtual desktop on which the apps are running? For example, if I'm running Overnet on :0 (the local X server) can I swtich that instance over to :1 (the VNC desktop)? I've read through all the documentation I've found but nothing's really been clearly explained. Right now, I haven't found a way to switch the desktops, nor have I been able to run multiple instances of the same app. Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Jon
