Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: UN*X version Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Franz Sirl (fsirl) Assigned to: Adam Tkac (atkac) Summary: No keyrepeat with 1.0.90 on SLES11SP1 (with solution) Initial Comment: My first try to use tigervnc-1.0.90 on SLES11SP1 worked, but caused the infamous key repeat problem. After some trying I found out that essentially xorg-7.4 != xorg-7.4 :-). Since I build with this command: sh ../tigervnc-1.0.90/unix/build-xorg build -version 7.4 -static it seems that the choice of packages in unix/download-xorg-7.4 is incompatible with SLES11SP1 xorg-7.4. I investigated the versions that were really in use on SLES11SP1 and came up with the attached patch (make sure you clean ~/.tigervnc-xorg-7.4 before you rerun build-xorg. After applying the patch everything worked like a charm and I didn't have a single problem (with a tigervnc-1.0.90 client on win7-x64) since then. Though I changed a few packages to use, my guess is that the input-proto and xorg-xserver ones are the most relevant changes. Hope this helps, Franz ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Franz Sirl (fsirl) Date: 2011-04-21 14:12 Message: Then I have to report that tigervnc-1.0.90 is totally unusable against xorg-x11-Xvnc-7.4-27.30.1.x86_64 from SLES11SP1. Colors are off, mouse input doesn't work, keyboard input crashes Xvnc, vncconfig doesn't start. So what other choice do I have than to use build-xorg to build a Xvnc compatible with tigervnc-1.0.90?

R. Commander (dcommander) Date: 2011-04-21 10:51 Message: You're misunderstanding the purpose of build-xorg. It is designed to build a cross-compatible version of Xvnc for systems which do not have recent enough Xorg libraries. If your system is already running Xorg 7.4, then you instead need to be building against the libraries that your system provides. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3290864&group_id=254363 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
