Forget Vinagre, forget Terminal Services Client, because there’s one tool now available that combines the best of both into one : GRDC. It’s a gnome tool that allows you to create a series of VNC and RDP entries (shortcuts if you like) and then launch them with a double-click. I’ve nominated it for sysadmin tool of the year in Sourceforge’s community awards for 2009. Please support its author with a click.

Meet Elisa
Been a while since I’ve posted, hasn’t it? But that just means that there’s even more cool stuff to nail now that I’m back. To kick off, here’s a video showing the latest and greatest from Fluendo’s Elisa media centre.
Having watched all that, I do have to admit that Elisa is still a little ropey on my Hardy build. I’m hopeful that by the time the Heron goes live, we’ll have an Elisa that runs comfortably under Compiz and doesn’t need too much tweaking of the configuration file. In fact, the drag and drop support for video/picture sources is a great start in that endevour. Finger’s crossed for April.
