While were on the topic of VNC, I found that on my Red Hat 7.0 system I am able to use VNC fine with KDE, or Gnome, or any other window manager, but when I tried to use VNC on my Red Hat 7.1 system (with the new XFree86 (version 4 I think), and the new KDE (version 2 I think)), I found that I couldn't get KDE or gnome to work. I would get all sorts of errors. TWM would work fine, but most my applications would crash when I tried staring them.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have a fix? I only know of 1 other person who had this problem. He said he read on a web site somewhere how to fix the problem, but of course he doesn't remember where. -- -----Original Message----- From: Rev Simon Rumble [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 15 January 2002 12:29 AM To: Robert Reid Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SLUG] VNC like it does in Windows On Tue 15 Jan, Robert Reid made the following spurious claims: > Try having a look at x0rfbserver.

Will grab the binaries later and see if I can get it going. -- Rev Simon Rumble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.rumble.net In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed---they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance.
