" Philosophy is, when somebody searches a black cat inside a black tube, but this cat is not there. Religion is, when one screams: ' I have her ! ' " (anonymous) " The mind is limited. The world is incredible. or: The world is limited. The mind is incredible ? " (insight) "True - if you know how to encrypt fool-proof - then you risk, that your datas are copied fool-proof." (Roger Signwood) To my person and my attitude: Yes - I am deaf - more I am stone-deaf, but not "stoned". In principle I don't vote down other Ubuntu - Users, I only vote up them, when ever there is a good reason for that. Or I remain neutral. This because voting down somebody is somehow antique - like to hold the thumb down as Roman towards the Gladiators - so voting down somebody is old-fashioned in my view.

About vino-server, which pops up in my firewall, I found only little here:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers#vino

What is vino-server doing more else in VNC ? Is vino-server necessary, or can I leave vino-server out of my installation ?
