TurboVNC vncviewer freezes on connection

linux-howto

http://www.linuxquestions.org – Hello, I've installed TurboVNC and also libjpeg-turbo on Centos 5 to view a Windows computer. I previously have been using TightVNC and it worked great. When I connect to the server using vncviewer, it will only occasionally refresh the image, like when I change a browser window to full screen. I selected to have a log file and debugging on the server, but I haven't been able to find the file. Here is vncviewer: Code: /opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer 192.168.1.4 Connected to RFB server, using protocol version 3.8 Enabling TightVNC protocol extensions Performing standard VNC authentication Pass (HowTos)

Creating .desktop file 40 weeks 3 days ago

I have tried to create a .desktop file to run vncviewer (tight vnc connecting to a mac). I have entered below into the file.

[Desktop Entry] Version=x.y Name=VNCViewer Comment=This is my comment Exec=/usr/bin/vncviewer 10.0.1.5:5900 Terminal=true

When I double click the file it returns "There was an error launching the application."

Any suggestions what I have done wrong in my .desktop file?

I connect to one of my work computers by VNC using the following

Code: vncviewer -via username@server_ip 127.0.0.1:xx -geometry 1300x800 I use this practically everyday to connect to our server and it ALWAYS worked fine with my F17 installation which has tigervnc 1.1

Now, I tried the same thing in my F18 installation and all I get is

Code: $ vncviewer -via username@server_ip 12

I have setup x11vnc on my xubunut 12.04 laptop. The vncviewer on the other machine always displays whichever workspace that is currently active on my laptop. Question: Is it possible to set things up so the vncviewer is fixed to one workspace? (it can be a fixed workspace, say workspace #1).

I have a headless Ubuntu 10.04 system with a shared desktop.

When I try to start Tightvnc with Xinetd, all I see in vncviewer is a grey screen with a black X.

When I start Tightvnc by typing vncserver in a terminal everything works fine.

Does anybody know why Tightvnc doesn't work with Xinetd in my configuration?

Thanks in advance for your help, Sem

Ubuntu 11.10 Tightvnc 1.3.9

I have an issue with my vino-server. When i connect to the remote screen in fullscreen mode, everything works fine.

But if i press mouse "Right Click" it closes the connection displaying as:

with xtightvncviewer:

xtightvncviewer: vino-server closed

with vncviewer:

vncvierwer: connection reset by peer

Do any one know how to get rid of this error.
