I was just wondering if its possible to 'spoof' VNC screen sizes? ie I install a 'remote' PC with X11 on a minimal graphics card and then, while connecting in with VNC I pretend its as good as the graphics card/screen on the machine I'm using as 'monitor'. Tom
If the remote PC is running the X11 version of VNC as you describe then yes, because the way VNC works with X11 is that the VNC server is a proper X server with a virtual screen which is distinct from the monitor screen. The virtual screen can be a different resolution and different colour depth than the real one.
