<div>You might try SSH with X forwarding unless you really *need* the full desktop. What desktop are you using (Gnome, KDE ...)?<br></div>

<div><br></div>
<div>I've "acquired" a laptop but its lacking on the ole Power and all my documents and stuff is on my desktop</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I used to use ... the method to connect via the gdm login screen ( name escapes me xdmcp?)</div>
<div>but this no longer works due to 1. network manager doesnt' work untill logged on 2. Ubuntu have dropped the old GDM for a rewrite</div>
<div>
<div>I've tried vnc but due to screen sizes the laptop can't display all the desktops screen and I had to logon 1st on the dedktop , bit of a pain and counter productive </div>
<div>unless i've missed something p</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>so any other ideas or tips would be fantastic</div>
<div><br></div>
