Re: Wireless connection.
Hallo John,
do you have a good reason for not using ssh?
sudo apt-get install telnetd
works on lenny, but not on KNOPPIX_V6.4.3DVD-2010-12-20-DE
but ssh works on knoppix KNOPPIX_V6.4.3DVD-2010-12-20-DE
enter in console:
sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
sudo passwd knoppix
on Laptop type:
ssh -Xl knoppix IP-LAPTOP
xlogo # just for testing
telnet uses unencrypted connection (which is perfectly ok in personal LAN) but does not set the DISPLAY Variable and Xauthority cookies automatically. And you may enable a passwordless login, just by public keys:
ssh -Xl knoppix xlogo
will open an nice X, if keys are properly set, but that is for another day;-)
It is ages ago since I was using slackware (30 floppies, I think;-), but I think they now have "slapt-get"
I am not realy sure what you mean by "graphic terminal"? Kdm or XDM to enter your pw in a colorful Login-Window? Or start SW like openoffice on the Slackwaresystem and redirect the display to the laptop?
Happy New Year everybody
