简单点理解就是RGS传输的其实就是显卡输出到显示器的信号,并不参与显卡内部的图形计算。实际上因为远程控制和传输的模式等因素,设计流程要复杂得多。
目前最新的版本应该是Remote Graphics Software 5.4.7
可以从官网直接下载

但是这个软件的sender是需要授权的,普通的机型或者其他品牌的工作站需要单独购买license,而惠普自己的图形工作站(包括移动工作站)就完全免费。
那么这个软件肯定有个检测机制,目前发现是通过检查机器型号的名字来确定的。
从另外的角度来说,如果想办法把其他机型的名字改为支持的机型名字(比如cpqtag工具来改),理论上也是可以‘免费’使用的。
现列出无需额外license的机型如下,(名字需要完全一致,比如HP Z820 Workstation如果工具改写成了HP Workstation Z820这样就不行)
