Stream Games Live From Pc - Pandora?

[valhalla]

anyone actually tried VNC

Back in the day on other devices such as Windows CE and smartphone devices - the concept was great but it tended to be slow as a dog, even if the machines were next to each other.

plain VNC is quite slow, but there are alternatives that managed to squeeze some more speed from the available bandwidth, so streamed games at least to a LAN may actually be possible, at least in some cases.

I had tried e.g. NoMachine NX and it did manage quite some speed (probably still not enought to play an FPS, however); unluckely while it is based on a free (GPL) protocol and library, the client is still propietary, and thus not an easy port (there is a GPL server, based on an old version of the library, but is still requires the proprietary client)
