as well, I'll keep an eye on the list archive.)

That's what I've gathered (VRDP not available in OSE) from various
forums. Maybe Debian maintainers could patch VBoxManage so that it isn't
displayed in the “-type” section? Not that important but that could
spare some time to people trying to use it since it's documented in the
usage message.

Anyway, I'm only running free software so that doesn't fit.

I wanted to make sure I didn't miss any obvious solution, I guess that
vnc is a suitable solution here, thanks.

Cheers,
