I was wondering how I would go about getting the sort of full screen image of a desktop running linux from windows using xming. Basically, I dont just want the console.

Thanks in advance!

See the xdcmp directions on the xming web site? –  Zoredache Jun 17 '10 at 18:41

Obviously, look at the previous solutions but also look at, http://ulteo.com/home/ If you're curious I've had decent performance while running VNC via a web browser.

I also have never tried it myself, but seen many a person on the tubez rant and rave for FreeNX, which is the GPLed code that is the core of their commercial product. The claim on their homepage:


They also have a Windows client, which I was unaware of until some Googling.

Look into some VNC software. There is a free edition of RealVNC that is worth checking out.

Some Linux distros may ship with VNC software already, so poke around on your machine first.
