or run the X apps on an external X server. I've had decent luck using
Cygwin/X on my Windows machines... setup putty or another ssh client
to enable X forwarding, run cygwin's shell, `startx`, let that X term
open on your desktop and minimize it, then log onto the linux/unix
machine with putty/crt, then run your X app and it should open on your
windows desktop. Works much better than VNC.
