Hi Folks,
I have a machine set up on my home network running Mandrake 10.0. I have
been using this machine to download large music videos etc from the likes of
bittorrent. I used a KVM switch with the linux box and my main machine in
order to control the linux box but it was a v.cheap switch (£5.00 on ebay)
and hence the picture quality is extremely poor (plus it locks out my
keyboard and mouse intermittently).
I have removed the switch and now want to access the linux box from my other
PC. I can SSH in and start downlaods etc but with the bittorrent stuff I
would like to see how much I have downloaded/uploaded to make sure i dont
become a file leach.
The problem i have is that when i switch the machine off that i ssh'ed in
from i then lose the screen that had all the details (i.e. if i ssh in again
i dont have the original screen up again). I have exceed but this has the
same problem - when you end a session you no longer have the same screen up
and hence the GUI for the bittorent client is gone. Does anyone know of a
solution to this problem or point me in the right direction as to where i
would find infomration about this?
Many Thanks,
John
