Hello,
using opensuse 13.1 on several computers at home, internal network
I would like to get rid of a kvm switch (and associated wires)
I have tried krfb and it works, …well ok,
barring any sound.
is there a way to get sound form the remote pc as well?
Any keyword suggestions / pointers would be great.
thank you for your time

Well I have not tried any of this but here is a page I found with a Google search
A little additional search and found a nice tutorial to get pulseaudio to network using pavolcontrol
Thanks for the responses.
Ended up using x2go.
how I did it:
the server:
considered the computer that you would like to tunnel into
There is a one click install: http://software.opensuse.org/package/x2goserver
in yast you should have pulseaudio, fuse, sshd installed.
users and groups ensure that user is a member of the “trusted” group (for file sharing)
firewall > external zone > add secure shell server to open up port 22
the application just runs and you don’t have to do anything
the client:
One click install: http://software.opensuse.org/package/x2goclient
yast:
in yast you should have pulseaudio, fuse, sshd installed.
firewall > external zone > add secure shell server to open up port 22
users and groups ensure that user is a member of the “trusted” group (for file sharing)
test the ssh by opening a terminal window and doing username@IPaddressof_X2GO-SERVER
open x2goclient
enter ip of new address (Server), username, SSH = 22 and click on the upper left box to launch instance, enter the password for the user.
Works like a champ.
hope this helps someone.
