[LinuxUsers] issue 7 NX Client

[Paul Saenz]

I'm not real clear about how packages are installed when not using the 
advanced package manager, or the synaptic package manager.

So, what is the criteria for where you install a deb package?

For instance: In which folder would you install the Nx client deb package?
And better yet ....why? What folder do I put the launcher in?

Another question I have about nx client: can you install nx client, and
nx server on the same box? Would there be any conflict?

Also, I am wondering the same thing about open office 3.0
I want to install open office on my ubuntu feisty, but I don't know 
what folder to put it in, or what folder to put the launcher in.

(I know feisty is outdated, but every time I tried to update to 7.10, 
my old inspirion 8100 would freeze up at the point where the cups
daemon started loading. I tried it over a half dozen times, and the same
thing happened. I suspect that maybe there is a bad sector, but, of
course, that is just a guess, I don't have any real evidence. I wonder if it
could be due to outdated architecture.)

Maybe Hardy will install from a cd install, but my cd drive broke.
That is why I want to try a usb flash drive.
Furthermore, I think there might even be a better chance if I use
ubuntu light with the Icewm. I just want to use ice because it think 
that the snappy factor is the primary feature to look for, and I can 
load whatever I want in the future.

Thanks

ssh the best way to do that? I also noticed that there is a remote desktop tool in the

system preferences menu. Should I ssh his computer, and then use the remote desktop 

tool, or is there as better and more secure way of doing
