Feature Request: Connect to XDMCP for remore desktop #34

See 
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Installation_Guide/s2-trouble-remotex.html
 for information on this.

The X server basically connects to a login server and runs a session on the 
remote machine, the session being forwarded over X11 protocols. This can also 
occur over SSH for security.

Adding this to configuration would allow mini-Android sticks to operate as full 
remote Linux clients. Oh, the money to be saved!

Oh Yes1 (Dribbles on the floor....)
Actually, I usually just connect from a Linux (Debian) over ssh with 
ssh -CY login@my.remote.server
and ssh does some magical port forwarding so I can start X programs from 
console. Support for this kind of magic alone would be great, it makes life 
much easier.
There's even some magical support that does transfer of clipboard and opening 
of links in a local web browser.
But having full desktop suppurt (without reverting to VNC) would be great!
