[OT]Hilarious joke, LaurV! I passed that along.[/OT]

[OT]The original is an over 30 years old poem, which I am still looking for. Don't know the author, it may be a famous british/american poet/joker. I could not find it on the web, I still remember the final rhyme also contains "by a truck" (it was a longer rhyme) which is missing from the story. There are many versions on the web, but no one fully in verses/rhymes. THAT was much better then the narrated story.[/OT]

----- from a friend of ours ----

Hey Scott,

Is this mk-whatever program coded to make calls against generic graphics APIs like OpenGL or DirectX, or is it calling manufacturer-specific device APIs? If the former, I don't think I have much to add, but if the latter, here is one thought.

Any such API has to have some way of signaling from the user-mode process calling it into the kernel-mode driver that actually implements the device. The mk-whatever program may have a hardcoded device path that wont be found because of how RDP sessions decorate these paths.

The Windows kernel places every device registered with the system in a hierarchical in-memory structure called the Object Manager Namespace. When Terminal Server was introduced the namespace was altered so you couldn't just specify a device (or named pipe, or shared memory section, or whatever), you had to specify the prefix \\global\ to get at systemwide devices. Or, it could be the program is already specifying \\global\ and needs to refer to the individual RDP session number.

Just a thought.

Cheers,
Owen

Anyone from the MFAKTC project looking at this?

I have been using the free version of this for a while now and it works great. When you first install it on your system it will default to the free trial, so you need to log into the website and change the subscription to free under each system's preferences. Other than that, this allows you to login, start mfaktc and do whatever else you need. If you want, you can RDP in after you've started mfaktc in logmein.

Don't know how many people use LogMeIn for managing their remote systems... if you use the free version, it's going away:

http://liliputing.com/2014/01/logmei...p-service.html

I found http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx

Seems to work very well, simple install and setup. It's not in a browser, but the program is quite intuitive. They support 'free' for personal use.

CUDA program will start back up using the remote TeamViewer!

Ah crap...

I guess I'll have to switch to TeamViewer.

Teamviewer will work from a browser

edit: at least I could a couple of months ago. Can't work it out now. Might be easier to work out when not trying the control the pc you are using.

I just started using it yesterday and it's not too bad. The app didn't need to be installed for connecting to the remote system.

I've used it a long time ago. If you install the full thing, you can sort/save/rename/list your computers like Logmein.
