SUBJECT: RE: Viewing PS2 Desktop on PCYou can either compile and use a VNC server on the PS2 then use a VNC client on the computer to view/operate the PS2 remotely, or you can enable SSH and use a program like Putty (if Windows) to run a shell or export X Windows back to your PC (use cygwin or similar to get X working if you use Windows).
Typically I enable SSH (ie, /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd start, modify your /etc/rc.d/ run levels to get it to run all the time) and log in remotely, or I can use ssh -X <ps2 host/ip> to forward X displays back to my computer. Generally I'm usually just using SSH for shell access, with the occasional X windows session to view any graphical output.
There's also Sauce's GSVNC server for viewing the GS framebuffer directly, as well, but probably best to start with getting SSH going first, the X Windows. |
