Impress - sending display to a separate X server?

[Mike Scott <mi...@scottsonline.org.uk>]

I can happily run Impress using a secondary monitor on a single machine. 
But looking at possible future options, I'm wondering if it's possible 
to send just the presentation display to a completely separate X server 
(keeping the control window on the local machine). That would allow a 
decently large distance to the display equipment without having long 
video cable runs. I've a suspicion not, at least without using xdmx or 
similar, but would love to ber wrong.

(Using ubuntu or debian; not windows :-)) )

TIA.

I'm not a linux guru, but it might be possible using the Remote Desktop facilities in most (all?) linux distros.
