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

When sharing a desktop screen, the host loses access to the menu bar. Along with it go the options to share/remove the microphone, access the whiteboard, and send files. The menu bar items should be available in the screen sharing pallette. If space is an issue, or a complete menu would ruin the interface design, a drop down list that provided all the options would suffice.
