So that means that for best performance over a slow line I should *not* use "-nocursorshape"?

Yes, that's how I understand it. When strace'ing vncviewer -nocursorshape, I saw that its eating of CPU cycles is mostly due to the fact that it chatters with the server all the time.

If yes, my bug report is INVALID.

Will do. (In reply to comment #4 from Mike Fabian)

Should I set it [-x11cursor] to make things faster over a low bandwidth line or not?

Don't know if this only means the client saves some CPU cycles on not having to draw the cursor or if it has a way to stop the server from sending the data at first place. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
