 +===== X11VNC Autostart ​ =====
 +If you'd like to start X11VNC automatically you must edit /​home/​$USER/​.xinitrc with:
 +

 +
 +<​file>​

 +
 +**DO NOT USE** the Autostart Programs option under OpenBox or Daemon tricks, it will start a X11VNCserver before a X11server and crash the VNC after the first client connection. So you'll only connect once to the server (and it's not desirable in support environments).
 +
 +===== Conspy and slow connections =====
 +
 +Launch a very verbose command into a conspy and the output is displayed at full speed in the virtual console whatever your connection speed to the remote box is (even if your connection is broken). ​
 +===== Conspy and Busybox =====
 +
 +Conspy is a busybox applet since busybox 1.17.0. It adds 2.5Kb to busybox, has better terminal support and supports some new options:
 +  * -c to create missing devices (/​dev/​vcsaXX and /dev/ttyXX)
 +  * -d for screen shot<​code>#​ conspy -nd 28 > screen28.txt</​code>​
 +  * -s to launch a shell<​code>#​ conspy -cs 28</​code>​ (no more openvt/​deallocvt)
 +  * -x COL -y LINE upper left corner position
 +  * -f follow cursor with automatic scrollings
 +
 +The conspy applet is enabled in the busybox package. The conspy package is no longer more useful than the recent busybox and will be removed from the packages database.
