Hi guys.
I've a Rasperry PI and I would like to have the X11 display on my Windows RT screen via SSH or something else.
It's already possible if you have Windows (not RT version), using Putty and Xming but Xming is not available as far as I know under RT.
Anyone has an idea?
In my experience the X11 performance on the pi is just terrible for my liking, I run the pi without it (or did, damaged the SD card socket and am yet to attempt repair although I have several methods for how to do so). To be fair, I didnt need X11 on the pi anyway, only graphical thing I ran at all was open arena.
Something which may work (although not as well as Putty+XMing) is VNC. The pi is capable of acting as both VNC server or client with X11 running. TightVNC has been ported to jailbroken windows RT devices, both server and client modes functioning.
I'm not aware of any X11 servers for RT right now, sadly. Xming, as its name suggests, is compiled using MinGW GCC; currently we can't use that to target RT.
That's what I thought
I tried VNC and indeed it's working but kind of slow.
Thanks guys :good:

There is a RDP relay server available for linux, called xrdp (can't post links yet, but it's a first hit on google for 'xrdp')
xrdp lets you connect to your linux machine via RDP and allows you to define different profiles, to relay your RDP connection to services hosted on you linux machine like vnc or x11.

Hi Guys,
im looking for a tool to Administrate my PC at home over my touch HD (over the www). Any Idea ??
Thanks

I recommend that you use the included remote destkop software or VNC. VNC is often easier to setup with firewalls and such.

Hi I use UltraVNC on my Desktop and Notebooks and have discovered VNC for Windows Mobiles from Mochasoft works pretty good.
Cheers

logmein, you'll need to use IE rather than opera on your phone and the full keyboard not the touch friendly versions. I find it works very well and its free!
Thx for the answer
logmein is very nice, but only if u have a good connection like umts.
with edge is it very slow, but it works
i test VNC next
try some of the settings in the tools menu in logmein, quality and speed settings here. I found logmein quite fast compared to VNC or remote desktop.
You should also give RDM+ a try; i've been using it for a while and it works great.

Have you tried the included remote desktop ! I cannot enter a password cause the keyboard refuse to take my entries... have you managed to do it ?

Yes I have tied the included remote desktop software. However I did not manage to set it up to my own computer because of my firewalls but I could connect to other remote desktop servers.
I use VNC now, far easier to get everything to work and lots of options available.
ok i tried:
- www.logmein.com
- Remote Desktop
- VNC
All of this services works without any problem, but the best and fastes way is VNC 4 me, i love it (thx 4 the tip)
EDIT: @ Torusy
Firewallsettings 4 Remote Desktop: open TCP port 3389

thanks for the information. Sadly I already knew about that part and had forwarded the ports and such still it was abit to messy with my firewall. And I like to follow my rule: when you can avoid software from Microsoft do it and yes im aware that im using Windows Mobile 6.1 by Microsoft
logmein.com
i've used the above, and it works well, the only draw back being though, unless you have a good data connection, it can be flustrating waiting for the action to happen at the other end...
other than that - yes try it.... well worth ago, as its free for the basic service!

I am trying the trial version but on their website it nowhere says how to setup a connection. Yeah i get this:
* VNC IP Address: Name of the VNC Server. Either a TCP/IP address as 155.22.11.2 or a DNS name.
* Port numberort number for the session. As default VNC uses port 5900 for Windows VNC servers, and UNIX/Linux uses 5901
* MS-Logon: UltraVNC can use the user ID/Password from the Windows OS
* User: Only valid for MS-Logon
* Password: Password for the VNC Server.
* Remember user/password: VNC will write the password to a local registry. Gives limited security!
But i dont know the VNC server, the password, or how to achieve those. How do they expect me to learn this? What do i need to setup on my PC in order to achieve those informations. RDM+ explains this much better, you have to setup a PC client, a WM client you get the password, and your done. But i was wanting to try out the mochasoft one to see if its any better, but cant seem to get an easy setup. Could someone please explain what i need to fill in to get a connection to my pc?
The fastest solution is the remote desktop, which is preinstalled on the Touch HD. You need at least XP Professional or Vista Business otherwise Windows has only the client and not the server service.
xp home
I have a Windows XP Home, and the build-in remote desktop software don't work then.
I Use UltraVNC on my pc and Mocha VNC on my HD, and i works ok, but it's a bit slow.

I don't know if this would help, but this was what I did:
VNC Server IP Address:
XXX.XXX.X.XXX:5900 (my ip address : port number)
Password:
(Right click on the icon in the taskbar on the server PC, and select Admin Properties. Fill the box at "VNC Authentification" with a password.)
Fill in the password on the Touch HD at "VNC Password, optional".
Then it just worked on my PC, but I don't know if your computer/firewall requires some extra settings.
Sorry for my bad english... Hope this will help you!
Hi Folks,
How realistic is this? Ie to remotely log in to a server and do something sensible like restart a web instance on IIS or whatever or am I being too ambitious? Some colleagues think I should stick with netbooks/laptops.
If realistic what would you recommend ie RDP, LogMeIn etc...?
Thanks,
Sam

Works and tastes great! I just posted the Logmein fix on my other thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524676
It's free, it's effective even on EDGE and it just works with Mac, Windows, or Ubuntu.

I frequently use RDP on my TP2 to access servers (and LogMeIn for workstations). RDP is a joy to use with the high resolution on the TP2. When I first started using it, I tried impressing my girlfriend with its capabilities, but she didn't give a ****. So, it's nice to finally tell someone who does!
I always though RDP was a little anemic. Is it still that way? One of the best things about logmein was the ability to set it and forget it even with dynamic IP addressing. Also it's easy to install for people that need help on their desktops or servers. The other applications I have tried are PCAnywhere which is nice but a pain if dynamic IP is present, also RealVNC which worked great but had issues with performance as well as interoperability between OSs. Any others out there that might be nice? I need to connect with OSX, Windows XP/Vista, and also Ubuntu.

Possibly getting a bit OT? but RDP is certainly excellent for any server administration task, and it works well on the TP2, which was the original question.
Folks,
Thanks for this. Very reassuring......
Brynweb, I loved your comment about your girl friend. I had the same issue with my wife...!! It is just a mobile.... ! No it is much more....

Its friggen convenient when I'm out somewhere and realise OMG I forgot to tell Media Center to record XYZ. I can remote into home and schedule it.
Kinda impressive to see the Vista orb 5mm high!
I've been using RDP since my I got my Universal. Its great. Love it! Just make sure you have your stylus handy!
I use SSH to connect to linux and windows machines. In addition I tunnel VNC if I want to have the full desktop instead of a command line.
Hi
Im running visual studio on Parallels 6.0 but the windows phone emulator doesn't seem to be working all that well. It boots and I can debug on it. But if i for example want to surf in internet explorer it doesn't work. Is that a graphics problem?
Anyways, has anyone manage to solve this?
Thanks

"Running the emulator inside a VM is not supported in Windows Phone SDK."
Yes, but not supported is not the same as not possible is it? My question was if somebody has a workaround.
I thought you needed hardware virtualization in your CPU for the WP7 emulator to work. This means it shouldn't work in Parallels at all.
As far as IE goes, that's very likely a graphic issue. Unless you can get some kind of DirectX or Direct3D support in your virtual guest, it's likely not happening...
Hoping that Parallels 7 released today solves this.

My CPU lacks hardware virualization and the emulator runs perfectly fine on it.

any news?
How do we enable Telnet in Windows 8 or 8.1
I looked in the normal add remove windows components. Not there.
Missing from the base install, apparently. On 8.0 you can use PuTTY. On either one, you can remote desktop to an OS that supports it, or you can use Powershell remote commands, or you can use one of the several apps in the store that support Telnet.
The server is also missing, which doesn't surprise me in the least (and is mildly reassuring; there's no good reason to use it that I'm aware of since more secure alternatives exist for both 'nix and Windows).
PuTTY is available on all x86 systems. Its also available for jailbroken RT systems (which means no 8.1 as of yet).
Otherwise, I didnt think anyone really used Telnet. Thought SSH had largely displaced it.
From what I've been told PuTTY was a better telnet client than the built in windows one anyway. And I am sure you can probably install a telnet server.

I did use it on 8, but was stupid and did not backup, thinking it would allow me to revert back to 8.0
Now I am stuck with 8.1 and no way to go back to 8.0
Tried to restore to factory version but still keeps 8.1 as the base version.
Anyone care to share a 8.0 version to me, so I can revert back.
Just checked the store, simple search for "telnet", 7 results, a few of which seemed to be SSH rather than telnet. Might be worth looking at them briefly.
Hi
Been wondering if there was anyway to emulate or run a virtual win environment on our little tab?
Was thinking along the lines of Xp or Win 7...
Anyone?

Not possible.
Not running Windows per se, but the Microsoft RDP client on Android linked to a Windows PC works very well.
I don't think we'll ever see the Windows kernel running on the Exynos chipset TBH, at the least it would require virtualization or emulation that would require a lot of coding and in any case Windows would place a much larger overhead on the processors than Android or Linux.
Windows RT, the Microsoft "equivalent" of Android (i.e. designed to run on a low-powered chipset), has not been very well received due to its much reduced command set. It looks like Windows desktop, but it cannot run full-blown Windows desktop applications.
FWIW
Ok, figured I'd ask. I know there were a decent number of virtualisation projects a while back, but usually focused around win98 etc
Though I'd love a stripped xp version on this tab
Could always use Citrix Receiver
could you elaborate a bit?

Well contrary to the "impossible" brigade... a VM with CPU emulation allows all kinds of impossible feats.
PearPC being an example or VirtualPC on old PPC Macs, etc etc. ! There are of course limitations. But the point is x86 & some basic HW emulation will allow you to run Windows as long as what's being emulated is of good enough spec for the version of Windows you want.
The bottleneck is almost always the speed the CPU emulation runs at, and that depends on both host and target architecture and there are different approaches with different advantages/drawbacks.
I've used BOCHS on my 10.1 (original) to run win98 (slooowly) - and others have got XP running (google is your friend) I chose 98 as it's basically DOS +GUI so I figured it might work better. I've not invested a lot of effort as the emulation and integration of UI elements isn't brilliant (yet).
There's a link here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389700
There are other x86 emulators like DOSBOX/QEMU running on ARM but as with all emulation it's never going to be as quick as a real CPU! That said some DOS games play well I believe.
I've not tried it on my 10.1 (2014) so can't comment on how it good it is there. Can't see how it would be worse!
YMMV.
