What's the benefit? The best I previously found was nomachine since it has clients for everything. But it's still so laggy over a remote connection, maybe I'm doing something wrong.



I was using freeNX, x2go is better. Nomachine is a paid product, it's head and shoulders better then VNC. You didn't experience that? The newer (non OSS) version supports UDP streams for media. It's free to use, but I've not tested it since it limits the number of users and I can stream ok with X2go.


I use the single-user free version of NoMachine (which I thought was also closed source). I agree it's better than VNC but that's not hard. I'm not trying to play media, just type etc. What I want is something as good as Windows Remote Desktop where you almost can't tell you are remote - I would happily pay for that.
