I need remote desktop viewer for work and after upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10 it doesn't work. The window just closes after I click 'connect' - as original user said, when I'd expect the vnc login. I'm having a hard time finding an alternative that works, any work-arounds so I can get up and running again?
