vnc client with seamless desktop?

Post by NoFastidies »

It`s imho currently of the most hot features around. I think it`s called seamless desktop.

On windows you see your normal tasklist and just over that a remote tasklist. The remote is not inside a single window, it integrates seamless.

screenshot (ubuntu host with gnome and xp guest is seamless integrated): http://www.theopensourcerer.com/wp-cont ... ot-nq8.png

The question is now:
which vnc clients support also this seamless desktop feature?

I have tightvnc here and tested it again. The remote desktop is inside a single window.

But there is no seamless desktop?

Are we talking about the same thing? Again, I do not mean remote desktop only. I mean those seamless desktop/windows. Here is another screenshot. It`s a kde host and a xp guest but the guest does not run in a single windows, it`s seamless integrated.

about what i understand,
seamless is part of third party software like parallels, virtualbox, vmware, bochs, wine allow run software from third party OS and unrelated to vnc or rdp.

vnc remote control of logged user desktop. (share)
rdp remote control of their own private desktop (unshared)
as well, you can mix both.

updated:
added wine, bochs, qemu
