Each have their own strengths and weaknesses. Most of them are installed by default as part of the desktop environment.<br /> <br /> The '''vinagre''' is the default remote desktop viewer for the GNOME desktop. It supports auto-scaling, full-screen and tabbed display, but lacks the ability to change compression and quality settings. vinagre can be installed using the following command:<br /> <br /> apt-get install vinagre<br /> <br /> The '''krdc''' is the default remote desktop client for the KDE desktop. It supports auto-scaling, full-screen and tabbed display, and a limited ability to change the compression and quality settings. krdc can be installed using the following command:<br /> <br /> apt-get install krdc<br /> <br /> The '''xtightvncviewer''' is the VNC client from TightVNC. It is a command line program which is neither GNOME nor KDE dependent. It is capable of taking advantage of some of the TightVNC-only features in the VNC server, and allows a very fine-grain configuration, but lacks auto-scaling support. xtightvncviewer can be installed using the following command:<br /> <br /> apt-get install xtightvncviewer</div>
