Thanks to all the people who responded to my query on this. I now
have the perfect solution, involving the use of vncserver and vncviewer.
I run vncserver on startup and in /etc/vnc.conf specify an XSession
startup file
(in my case ~/.vnc/Xsession) where I execute the wm and apps I want to start.
At any time I can view this X-session by running vncviewer.
Running this via my W2K X-Windows emulator, the optimum parameters are:
vncviewer - geometry 640x480 -noauto -encoding raw
I've put these into an alias, so i only need type vncviewer :1
cheers
Andrew
