This command is run in the standard Linux environment via the Terminal Activity. The GUI will probably not integrate comfortably with the XO Laptop's Sugar environment. Your user experience may vary considerably depending on the established environment and the other programs running on the laptop, may need re-installation after an OS Update. See the Linux software category for other commands. |
Description
XO Laptop offers rdesktop. (remote desktop manager ?)
Installation
(Already pre-installed)
Running
From Terminal activity.
$ rdesktop
or for full screen
$ rdesktop -g1200x900
To enable audio, include "-r sound:local" on the command line:
$ rdesktop <hostname>[:port] -r sound:local
If you get no sound, and an error like:
/dev/dsp: No such file or directory
you may need to load the oss module, using this command in the terminal (as root):
# /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss
According to this (http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-January/010015.html), snd-pcm-oss is available on joyride-1550.
(TODO: How best to ensure snd-pcm-oss is automatically loaded?) Steps below taken from: http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-August/018109.html To always load the snd-pcm-oss during boot, create the file:
# vi /etc/sysconfig/modules/oss.modules
and add the line:
modprobe snd-pcm-oss
Finally, make the file executable via:
# chmod +x /etc/sysconfig/modules/oss.modules
