Hi,
I was hoping to have the gui enabled so that debugging is still possible
(and practical).
I tried your suggestion and it takes no less cpu and it has a dead gui in
that image now.
As for the network connection, I've tried the squeak vnc server and have not
been able to get it to work. I use the RealVNC client.
How do you make this all work Avi?
All the best,
Peter
