Why can't you do that with Axis or any GUI? Headless box boots text mode. On the GUI computer: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ emc That should start EMC, with all user interaction on the screen of the GUI comouter. I have run my shoptask from my desktop using this technique. The config picker, Axis, and halscope all work fine. This is with a full graphical install on the shoptask computer though - I normally run the machine while standing in front of its own display and keyboard. I haven't tried this with the shoptask PC in a text only runlevel.
