Years ago, once comfortable working with NO, I put 
TightVNC in the adjacent Debian Linux and made some 
use of the combination.  Responsiveness was poor and 
the screen "real estate" in Oberon was a constraint.  
Consequently the VNC combination of Oberon and Linux 
wasn't distinctively helpful.

More recently I happened to find incron in Linux and 
based a simple task server on it.  It's effective and 
I use it frequently.  In Web page developement for 
example, I edit in Oberon send the document to Debian 
by FTP.  Immediately the rendered page appears.  
Documentation is here.  Desktops.OpenDoc
