Yes, vncserver works pretty well if you have a fast local connection - and it is
easy to set up. The freenx, NX client combination does approximately the same
thing but is much more efficient because it uses X protocol instead of just
bitmaps - and it can resize the screen as you connect from different clients. It
also tunnels everything over ssh so you don't have to arrange that yourself.
