OLD COMPUTER CHALLENGE: DAY ][
CONFIG: m0ar aliases for ease of use.
CONFIG: Tweaks for .screenrc file.
LAB: 10:24 AM 75F 56%
CONFIG: x2go has been configured on gogglev so I can access the desk-
top during lunch and downtime at work. I would rather inter-
face with the hardware directly, but that is for off-hours.
TO DO: Configure gogglev for desktop access to voltesv. - DONE
FOUND: x11vnc-0.7-sol10-sparc-local.gz
CONFIG: x11vnc v0.7
LAB: 3:02 PM 77F/58%
HOWTO: Remote Access from gogglev to voltesv
1. On gogglev - ssh to voltesv
2. Run "/usr/local/bin/x11vnc -display :0" on voltesv shell.
3. Open SSVNC on gogglev and login.
NOTE: sunfreeware has been gone for some time, which was were x11vnc
came from. Possibly replaced by Open Computer Software Project
(OpenCSW).
NOTE: "With the disappearance of Blastwave and the removal of free
downloads of SunFreeware on 30 September 2013, OpenCSW is the
biggest source of Solaris packages. , it had 3739 unique packages
for Solaris 10." - gopherpedia
TO DO: Research OpenCSW
LAB: 10:20 PM 77F/48%
CONFIG: No fun with framebuffer config. Display stays ugly, but
functional.
NOTE: Not as much time this evening for old computing. I have been
hanging out some in #oldcomputerchallenge on irc. Nice
community there and lots of activity. Also seeing some
familiar handles from sdf [represent!]
OBSERVATION: extensive installs, configs, and troubleshooting can get
exhausting and un-fun when all I want to do is old
computing.
TO DO: Find a fun game to install and enjoy on old computer.
