Notes:
Open a remote browser
Let’s see what happens when I try to run a web browser remotely. The web browser on the Raspberry Pi is called Midori , so this is what we need to enter from the prompt after we connect remotely:
brian@raspberrypi:~$ midori & [1] 5773
We need to include the “&” symbol after the program name because this tells the server to launch it as a separate process, which means we get our command line back.
We get the response “[1] 5773”, which is the process number of the Midori program now running.
Sometimes you will get GTK errors, which report library shortcomings on host (the RPi) or server (your X server) but the process is pretty robust.
