- brobdingnagian 11y agoThe end of that page says "You should use a product based on the Remote Framebuffer Protocol (RFB), such as a member of the VNC family."

The GPU isn't even seen by OpenGL apps by default. I could spend days trying to iron out a process, but I'm really surprised that no one is offering this out of the box.
