Any ideas??
Sorry -- Never mind (slaps self figuratively) DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="no" in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager :-( screenshot: http://nirvana/download/screenshots/X11/Xnest800.jpg (47k) Also, is there a reason that Xnest running in a window is much less responsive than XDMCP running on tty8? It makes sense that since there is much more going on visually in a windowed environment, that performance would take a hit, but this is a BIG hit. Xnest running windowed doesn't feel any more responsive than tightVNC, but XDMCP flies just like I'm sitting at the remote keyboard. All the testing with the different remote display managers and rdesktop (for windows), etc. from the same laptop shows the following performance results: Access: Performance: ------------- -------------------------------------- XDMCP Excellent - no delays, just like being at the remote keyboard. rdesktop (windows) Excellent - no delays, just like being at the remote keyboard. Xnest OK - noticeable delays on menu and window drawing. Benefit of using native X server on remote system. vncviewer OK - noticeable delays on menu and window drawing. Drawback of requiring separate vncserver to be started. Anybody know any tricks to speed Xnest up? I've tried setting "-depth 16" to cut down on the color depth, but the server will not start. I guess you are stuck with the native depth of the remote server?? Other than that, Xnest works great! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
