Hi all,

I've been searching for a while for this but don't seem to find a solution. My
quest is: Is it possible to get a copy of an X screen so I can display it
somewhere else?

Suppose I have two X screens :0.0 and :0.1. Would it be possible to capture :0.1
and display it in a little window on :0.0? This would be extremely useful for
running things fullscreen on a second display (:0.1) while controlling it from
the first (:0.0) while being able to see the contents of the second on the first
display.

I could write some capture code and get a framebuffer this way but I thought I
would first explore if this isn't somehow built in already or done before?

Any thoughts/suggestions?

Rg,

Arnaud Loonstra

I use x11vnc / tightvnc
