[xubuntu-users] Windows-Xming-Ubuntu

[Richard Johnson]

Hi All, 

 

I am currently running Windows 7, Xming v. 6.9.0.31 and Ubuntu v. 12.10. 

 

Here is what I would like to do..please don't go into the why's about what I
am looking to do...I would just like to do it.

 

Essentially I would like to access my GUI for my Ubuntu workstation. I am
still learning the command line commands and would like to use the gui until
I am more comfortable. I have tried configuring RDP on the Ubuntu server,
and I am able to RDP from my windows machine to the Ubuntu server, but my
backsplash shows up and nothing else, so I think it's a video issue. So, I
would like to try to use Xming/XLaunch. Can someone walk me thru what needs
to be done step by step on both sides (Windows and Ubuntu). I do have SSH
configured to the Ubuntu server and I can login to the box via that method. 

 

 

Thanks, 

 

 

Rich
