Public bug reported:
In older versions of Vvnc there was an option to switch off the display of the
mouse cursor. This option was useful when
using Xvnc to provide a view-only image.
This option is not present anymore in the current version of Xvnc.
Here follows a patch that reimplements that option. Feel free to include it in
subsequent versions of Xvnc.
The new option is called 'NoCursor'. The change consists of only 6 lines.
Many thanks.
