Morning gents,

I have installed suse11 as my first distro.

So far i have

mounted 3 hard drivers 3x80GB
Set up firewall
Set up Samba server access from my vista machine for films/ISO's backups etc
Set up SSH keys
Set up remote acess VIA Vino.

Now, i have some questions (i have googled with no joy!)

How do i get full screen VNC? i cannot find a global conf file for Vino...
I have tried to install other VNC software on linux box but can only get the konsole back not desktop??

Also whats the command @ konsole to search for filename? (havent googled that one but as im here..)

Now the big question... Is there a way using Suse or any other version of linux to get .Net emulation? or get .Net running?

Thanks all

Gaz

To search for files you can use the find command, eg: find / -name myfile

There is a much better option however, as find searches through the disk manually, see if you have locate installed, also known as slocate/mlocate, if you dont, install it. Then get to a root terminal and run updatedb that bascially indexes the drive into a database, then you just run locate myfile for instant results, the only drawback is it doesnt find 'real time' files like the find command would, maybe set a daily cron job for updatedb and your sorted.

As for .NET emulation, look at the mono project: http://www.mono-project.com its really very good these days. However depending on how far you want to go, a virtual machine with visual studio in maybe a more suitable option :)

Cant help you with VNC, other than suggesting FreeNX instead
