It's a bit slower than vncviewer
Slower? You mean you've been able to get vncviewer to perform well - or at least adequately - or at least fast enough not to cause severe brain haemorrhage while waiting for the screen to refresh?
Um, yes. It's interactive performance could be described as lacking sharpness, but it was perfectly usable. Click the icon, Notepad appears within a second, sort of thing. Sluggish by Windows standards, but still better than KDE!
If so, would you mind letting me in on what settings you used? I'm sure it's possible since I managed to get it working with krdc and they use the same vnc protocol, but after two weeks of fiddling with the settings I more or less gave up.
The default ones. In fact, I changed the server to poll the whole screen because I was having trouble with menus not drawing correctly. That slowed it down a bit, but it's still OK. The client uses auto everything. krdc is a little better polished, but a bit slower. Still usable. There doesn't seem to be an auto-password facility, which is an irritation. -- "...our desktop is falling behind stability-wise and feature wise to KDE ...when I went to Mexico in December to the facility where we launched gnome, they had all switched to KDE3." - Miguel de Icaza, March 2003
