By Ben Chong, Product Management, VMware View Clients
Here at VMware, we have been working closely with our key Thin Client partners to deliver a new Linux client that is optimized for View 5. The benefits of the new View 5 optimized Linux client include better PCoIP performance thanks to client-side caching, secure connection indicators, and multi-desktop capability.
The new VMware View Client for Linux is now available on VMware Ready certified thin clients and as upgrades to existing thin clients from HP, Praim, Stratodesk, Fujian Centerm, IGEL, 10ZiG and Wyse.
View customers still using the older 4.6 View based Linux thin clients are encouraged to upgrade now. Contact your thin client vendor for more information.
Also, Ubuntu users will also be excited to know that the new View client available in the Ubuntu Software Center works great with the 64-bit version of the new Ubuntu 12.04.
We are excited that our partners are taking advantage of all the great capabilities to make VMware View 5 and later even better:
