yebbut there's a lot of non-free stuff (like Acrobat reader) which doesn't
have 64-bit versions, and Automatix doesn't install 32-bit versions of all
of them for you so you've got to manually configure a 32-bit chrooted
environment ... or something: haven't got round to it yet (I run 32-bit
apps off another box via ssh -X).


There you go.

Far better than RDP anyway
