Hello,
I have a apple tv running Ubuntu with xbmc.
I was wondering if there is a way to view my laptop's ubuntu desktop on the tv through xbmc on the apple tv?
Thank you

So does the much weaker ARM-powered ATV2, and that can do exactly that (just not within XBMC... yet)

You could just run a VNC client on the ATV1. It wouldn't be smooth and fluid, but it would allow you to do things like basic presentations, web browsing, etc.
