Alternative to VNC that yields sound?

Install VLC on the linux machine, set it up to do remote streaming, then
install VLC on the Air, and have it connect to that stream. It's been a
while since I've done that, but I think I remember writing a shell script to
use the CLI version of VLC to open the DVD and start streaming it. Check
