More about this activity
This activity helps you broadcast your screen to another computer. It will automatically launch a VNC server (X11vnc) and display your IP address. You can then connect and view the screen of Sugar on another conmputer using any VNC client (e.g. TigerVNC, UltraVNC Viewer, RealVNC, etc).
Developer Comments
VNC Launcher was built on top of the Terminal activity and was developed by Arnan (Roger) Sipitakiat ( arnans at gmail.com) and Rinda Chokate (rindar at gmail.com)
Reviews
On some systems, there is a missing dependency: openssl-devel
From the terminal window,
sudo yum install openssl-devel
You may also have to add some symlinks in /usr/lib:
cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s libssl.so libssl.so.8
sudo ln -s libcrypto.so libcrypto.so.8
Enjoy.
