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!

jason

Oups, you are hapless too! ;)
No way to use a photon application like that.
You definitively need to ... buy! ... Phinx, which is the Phindows for
Unix/Linux. The only one able to render photon graphics on your Linux box.
So, by this way, you don't need any XFree package.
Don't know what's the price of Phinx, but I wonder if it's not better to buy a
share box for your screen/keyboard!

Just one thing, ddd, for example, but like all x application are really much
faster through vnc than through xphoton/photon/phindows.

regards, Alain.

Re: VNC + Photon apps

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.

QNX 6.0 + XFree4.2 + QT3

Hi again.

Well, i'm running with QNX6.1 with Xfree4.2, and the
QT libraries works perfectly.
But now, i need to run QT under QNX 6.0 :(

I did the same steps as installing under QNX 6.1.
i have installed X Photon Patch A ( Qnx6.0 CD-ROM )

1st - install XFree 4.2
2nd - modify .profile
    export PATH=/opt/X11R6/bin:$PATH 
    export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 

Rebooting system.

And when i'm trying to start xeyes or xclock under
photon ( with QNX 6.1 and 6.2 it works this under
photon ) i have the following ERROR:

Cant acces shared Library.

Someone knows what happens ?¿
or only its that Xfree and QT only runs with QNX 6.1
&& 6.2 ¿

thx in advance.
