Linux distros are becoming more popular as there GUI become more versatile and even easier to use then Windows. Ubuntu seems to be one of the quickest growing system bases right now, so it would be a good place to start. ConnectNow is a very useful tool and would help experienced Ubuntu users further help less technical and new users with hard issues for their systems. Instead of having to type long explanations and shell scripts into a forum a mentor could simply send a personal message to the questioner with their meeting room URL and do it for them (while the asker observes the resolution). This would probably be used far more than even your Windows solution would. Help the movement. Go Ubuntu!!! (Or any other flavor Linux. Windows belongs on corporate workstations not PCs, and free solutions like ConnectNow could greatly help this movement!)

Probability is you've came from a Linux forum that I've posted this too, so you don't need to read the rest, you just need to hit the littl

According to your support site, Acrobat.com only partially supports Linux - it's lacking the ability for a user to share her screen.  This is the principal function that I use acrobat.com for (paid version), so it's really important that this get on to Acrobat's feature list.

I've got a dual-boot installation between Vista and Ubuntu (9.04).  I have to reboot into Vista whenever I want to share my screen, which means waiting 10 minutes for Vista to become usable (not acrobat's fault, naturally!).

Thanks!

Adobe should either a) develop a ConnectNow screen sharing component for Linux x86 and x86_64 architectures or b) organize an open source project for implenting it.

One of the only things keeping me from switching 100% to Linux is the lack of a Connect presenter plugin for Linux.  Please create one or publish the specification for the protocol so that the open source community can build one.  Thanks.
