Public bug reported: Running Xubuntu 16.04 on both client and server. Server is a laptop running `x11vnc -display :0 -forever`. From client, I connect with `xvncviewer $hostname`. Connects fine, everything works great. Press F8 on client to bring up the pop-up menu, and all options work as expected. Click on Full screen, and that too works.
However, when I want to get out of full screen mode, I press F8, click on Full screen again and something hangs. The Full screen option in the menu disappears, and nothing else works, I'm left staring at the server screen, but I can't do anything. I can move the mouse pointer which is now just a dot, but clicking does nothing, and because I was in full screen, I can't access anything else on the client machine, even via Alt-Tab. Changing to the console and killing xvncviewer doesn't help, and in the end I have to restart xorg. Please let me know if you need more info to help debug this. ** Affects: tightvnc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720520 Title: xtightvncviewer hangs when returning from full screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tightvnc/+bug/1720520/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
