VNC + Photon apps

Hi folks,

I’ve just installed a QNX 6.1 machine which I’m going to use to create
some apps for my hapless Audrey and I had a quick question… ideally,
I’d like to use VNC to share my QNX machine’s screen so that I can do
most of my work on my linux machine (and lose a monitor from my desk).
I’ve downloaded the XFree86 and VNC installs available here (thanks!),
but since I’m writing a Photon app, I’m not sure that what I want to
do is possible.

In order to share my QNX machine’s screen while running photon, do I
need to install both the XFree86 install and the VNC binaries? Or can
I just use the VNC binaries?

Thanks!

What you want is to run Photon apps (on qnx) and display it inside
X (on qnx or linux, doesn’t matter since X protocol works over network).

So, you need phinx (photon in X).

phinx is NOT a purchasable product, but you can download the free beta
from http://betas.qnx.com/phinx/

There is a post on this mailing list on how to get it work. Read the
archives.

You don’t need XFree86, or VNC.
