patch to vino 2.12.0 to remove gconf dependency

2006-08-08 Thread Sebastian James
Hello there, I've done a quick hack on vino to remove the requirement for gnome and gconf. Instead, I have vino-server reading a very simple configuration file. It will be obvious to desktop manager/distro developers where to replace this with a nicer configuration system perhaps using libxml2
