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: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: ptamlx (ptamlx) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Screen update issues Initial Comment: In some cases, the tigervnc server on Linux does not update the screen correctly. One case that I can always reproduce is with the Cadence IC design software. When a property dialog is opened, there are often thin lines around some boxes which are not updated, but where I can still see what was present before the dialog opened. A screen redraw fixes the problem. This happens with versions 1.1.0 and 1.0.90, independent from the viewer (checked with tigervnc viewer and realvnc viewer on Windows XP clients). Please check the attached example screenshot. Interestingly, the regions which are not redrawn are always just one-pixel wide lines. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Date: 2011-10-05 17:00 Message: Scratch that, this is almost certainly related to bug #3414789. DRC replaced the existing binaries on 2011-10-01, can you please install those and see if the issue is resolved? FWIW, I just started IC5141 and cannot reproduce the problem (using a local build with the same fix as the official 10/1 binaries). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Date: 2011-10-05 16:45 Message: Can you both report back what linux distro and release version you're running Xvnc on? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: https://me.yahoo.com/a/56BmNR9g () Date: 2011-10-05 16:40 Message: I'm having the same issue with 1.1.0 and 1.1.80 versions of tigerVNC, when running latest Fluxbox. Windows borders are no more refreshed when another Windows XP window got the focus on top of the viewer. The viewer "Refresh Screen" action renders everything back. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: ptamlx (ptamlx) Date: 2011-10-05 04:29 Message: I tried tigervnc-Linux-x86_64-1.1.80.tar.gz which I downloaded on 2011-09-29 and it is not fixed there. I assume the archive did not change since then, since it still has the same version number. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: D. R. Commander (dcommander) Date: 2011-10-05 04:15 Message: Have you tried the latest build from trunk (http://www.virtualgl.org/DeveloperInfo/TigerVNCPreReleases), on the off chance that this has already been fixed? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: ptamlx (ptamlx) Date: 2011-10-05 04:11 Message: In case it is the problem mentioned by cendossm, would it be easy to fix? It is really annoying. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Pierre Ossman (cendossm) Date: 2011-09-29 07:01 Message: I seem to recall we had a problem with not tracking window border changes, but that we ignored it because basically all that used that feature was twm. Maybe this is the same issue? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3415308&group_id=254363 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
