<p> The <a href="http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/">VNC</a> protocol
allows you to view and interact with the computer's display from
anywhere on the network.
<p> To use Qt/Embedded in this way, <tt>configure</tt> Qt with the <tt>-qt-gfx-vnc</tt>
option, and ensure that you also enable 16-bit display support. Run
your application via:
<pre>
    application -display VNC:0
</pre>
 
then, run a VNC client pointing at the machine that is running your
application. For example, using the X11 VNC client to view the
application from the same machine:
<pre>
    vncviewer localhost:0
</pre>
 
<p> By default, Qt/Embedded will create a 640 by 480 pixel display. You
can change this by setting the <tt>QWS_SIZE</tt> environment variable to
another size, e.g. <tt>QWS_SIZE=240x320</tt>.
<p> VNC clients are available for a vast array of display systems: X11,
Windows, Amiga, DOS, VMS, and dozens of others.
<p> The <a href="emb-tqvfb.html">Qt Virtual Framebuffer</a> is an alternative
technique. It uses shared memory and thus is much faster and smoother, but
it does not operate over a network.
