Vnc from your pi to your pc or from your pc to your pi?

Your not going to be able to do it in openelec without compiling a million things yourself. You can install lxde in rasbmc and then run a vnc client from there. There isn't a elegant solution that I know of.

Raspbmc includes a VNC server.
I have only tested it briefly though, it´s not fast but works out of the box.
Edit: It is experimental though.

He's asking how to install a client not a server.

I thought that too, but does "pc to pi" mean client to server or server to client?
Just thought that the most obvious usage would be server on Pi and client on PC, but I might be wrong...

Ok, Yeah you want the server on your pi. There are plenty of guides on how to do this. But its slow since what it does is take screenshots and sends them to your pc.
