So I have challenged the odroid people to actually make it work. > > nmap -p 6000 <domain> > should then be open if X runs on display :0 > > In doubt, start the server by hand "Xorg -listen tcp :0" to test the > behavior. > That server starts automatically. No clue it it shut down with ctl+alt+del. No, its been hijacked to start a logout session for me. The line that starts it, xinit/xsessionrc specifically says -listen tcp as an argument for /usr/bin/X > Cheers, > Thomas > _______________________________________________ > xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support > Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg > Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg > Your subscription address: %(user_address)s Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
