Please Beta Test - VNC Viewer GUI front end for GTK+2
Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2007 9:31 pm
Hi All,
Please beta test my new app. It is a front-end GUI for vncviewer for GTK+2 environments (Gnome, KDE, XFCE, etc.).
It was created to help new users to linux avoid the terminal. I just built a new Ubuntu box for a client and they are not linux terminal savvy, so I wrote this to help them use VNC Viewer.
From the readme:
Thanks in advance for testing.
