VNC for emulators?

A Former User

First, I'm a bit pissed off having to accept marketing material mail shots before I was able to join the forums. This is a really cheap and tacky practice being take up by many people. It flies against opt it not out and personally I think it stinks.

Second, I use raspbian on many pis, they're all headless. So is it possible to use the vnc viewer installed with raspbian for viewing the emulators?

Thanks.

@munty VNC would be too laggy to play games from any device.
If you want to stream games from your PC to your Pi you can use Moonlight if you have a newer nvidia geforce graphics card

Not really, VNC uses it's own X server, the emulators are not X based and will not run under a VNC server.

Care to explain ?

@munty marketing material? We do nothing of the sort.

[Edit] oh, the legal popup. Ask the EU. It's afaik what's needed to cover forums under recent law changes. We won't send you anything unrelated to the forum or share any details.
