Its based NX but is completly open source. We are trying to get it into 9.04 but Time is short till feature Freeze. Check it out, maybe its an option for you Maybe x2go (http://x2go.obviously-nice.de/index.php?id=48) is also a good solution for you. Its based NX but is completly open source.

But from what i heard, NX is quite hackish and complex. But it works great (if you forget about the bugs). Maybe its useful for you thinking on the topic.

I just don't see any books etc to buy on Xorg programming, I found some xlib stuff but it doesn't explain the under-workings of it all though Jeff — yeah that is exactly the branch I was checking out.
