FWIW:  The tightvnc package is what's been on SuSE distributions
for a while now.  We generally us it during autoyast installs so
somebody doesn't have to sit in the shop watching to see when

it about the job that makes it worth revealing, on national television,
that you have the ethical standards of a slime-coated piece of
industrial waste?
