Hi all,
I've been trying to figure out how to attach a program running in the GO
language to a GUI, since it doesn't have a built in GUI. I've found a
couple of X11 server programs in the Google Play store entitled,
cleverly, X Server. I'm wondering if I can run the X server on the
Android tablet and control or drive it remotely from another PC with a
GO program or even a bash script. So, if I install the X Server program
on the tablet, and say its address is 192.168.50.5, and the pc's address
is 192.168.50.1, how do I run Ubuntu graphical apps (say Firefox?) on
the PC and have them appear on the tablet? Furthermore, how do I use a
program or script to drive the X11 server directly, so I can use the
tablet as the GUI for the GO program?
Sincerely,
Ron
