 What, exactly, are you trying to do?

tell is a GUI for linux. A collegue of mine, tells me that you can also get
a programe, that, when you a) telnet into your linux machine b) export
somehow ((I am still new to linux and am learning, so bare with me)) the
display settings to a remote computer (say from home). c) then you run an
x-window session from home, that gives you that same GUI interface as if you
were running x-window from the console at your linux box.

I don't know any user groups in OZ, I did a search on linux, found this
group and joined. I am  more than satisfied with the reaction time or
response time. ie: when I write a letter, the longest I have had to wait
ever, has been 10 minutes. I have been on this list for a  little over 3
months now. Lag, ? it would take someone in Australia 10 days to get around
to reading their email :)
