How did you specify the necessary modules: the driver and the rfb keyb/mouse? Did you use X4_MODULE_01 or did you just include a custom-made XF86Config file in your lts.conf? I tried to get it running with the mga.o driver, but it didn't really work. As soon as I click a mouse button gnome/gdm dies and throws me back to the login prompt. any suggestions? tom > ------------------------------------------------------------ > I've seen it mention here that others have got xf4vnc to work > but I've fallen short. > If anyones got it to work, what combination of versions > are you using?
