Hi list, I remember there once was a short thread in this list about problems with KDE2 and VNC. I also had the problem with ~/.vnc/xstartup script. The script which used to work with KDE (SuSE 7.0) stopped working after upgrade to KDE2 and SuSE 7.1
Now, this is solved by adding -depth 24 in command line, like this:
vncserver -depth 24
However, now there is another problem:
It is not possible to start more than one vncserver at the same time. Before, I could start different vncservers... I used to start three different geometries at once, so I could use vncviewer from three machines having different screen resolutions, e.g: snip<
Wish I could help more, but all I can say is VNC didn't work well in 7.1. I just had three instances (2 linux, 1 win98) of VNC running on my desktop, but I am using 7.2. Also VNC does not need to be started in a terminal as it did in 7.1. VNC performance in 7.1 was not something I was thrilled about especially since it worked well in 7.0 and before. Are you using the version from www.tridia.com? I can't remember if it worked with 7.1 or not. I remember it working with one version (either 7.0 or 7.1) better than the supplied version from the cd. Might look into this if you have not already. Tom -- TRBishop tb64710@alltel.net SuSE 7.2 Pro
