Hi,

For what it's worth - I use Jolly's Fast VNC - it works consistently well for me, and it's available through the app store on the mac.

I’ve had success with TigerVNC 1.7.0 (latest release) - seems a lot more stable than Chicken in my experience

For example on Mac the only VNC client that actually manages to login to the KVM using VNC is Chicken 2.2b2 to my knowledge.

I'm running SmartOS 20160818T234814Z and using freebsd-10 20160415 in a KVM. I've installed a number of window managers but the mouse never works. Has anyone been able to use a window manager like WindowMaker, wmii, twm, etc., over Xming?

I tried generating an xorg.conf which typically isn't needed, but it doesn't work. Here are the contents.
