Nomachine for linux9/5/2023 ![]() I'm not sure if it's available anymore or if they changed their stance on it all and made it free with remote management now - you'll have to check. I also bought a license of NoMachine's h.264 encoder (AVC pack) a while back, but I didn't have a great experience with it - because I don't think I coupled it with the right hardware at the time, to be fair. AMD's equivalents I can't speak to, but generally think mid-to-high-end from the same era (and onward) again. That's generally any Sandy Bridge era CPU or newer, and any mid-to-high-end GeForce GTX 600-series or newer (some GTs may not). Granted, the Parsec host requires a decent onboard GPU or discrete GPU, providing a real-time h.264/h.265 encoder. The desktop feels practically local, and Parsec works via Chrome or its client. I do use NoMachine for managing some non-Windows UIs, myself, but Windows machines are pretty much now managed by Parsec (lol), because of the excellent, fluid experience. But I think it fits the bill for the majority of folks out there. More important, I think the features/support is a bit light, and there's not much user rights management stuff so it's all for personal use. ![]() Parsec sets you up for this pretty handily, but as one person complained, you need to create an account for it (it's really not a big deal to me, but okay). ![]() Unless you're doing hardware-offloaded, real-time h.264 or h.265 encoding, I don't think it's as good an experience for gaming. But I'll keep the rest here for a fuller thought on things as I did some digging)
