Public bug reported:
In Jaunty, the image being sent to the remote desktop via either Vinagre
or tightvncserver, freezes up. It appears that the problem lies with
the server side, and not the remote side. Because, the remote computer
(Ubuntu 8.10) can receive rdesktop images just fine from other
computers.
Detail: Dell Precision M6400 laptop, with Jaunty 9.04. Attempting to use
it as a server supplying images to a remote desktop. I have tried using
Vinagre as well as tightvncserver, but the same problem arises
regardless of which I use: the remote desktop can initiate a connection
to my laptop, request permission, and achieve a connection. And the
image on my laptop's screen immediately appears on the remote desktop's
monitor-- as it should. But that initial image which gets transmitted,
gets immediately fixed on the remote moniter and does not continue to
update as the image on my laptop changes. Whatever the first image was,
that is all that gets transmitted.
One odd thing is that if I move the cursor on my laptop screen, the
remove desktop moniter will see the cursor moving around. But if I open
and close any applications, or anything I do on my laptop screen,
nothing of that is visible to the remote desktop except that the cursor
itself is moving.
My laptop can work just fine as the remote desktop and recieve images
from the desktop of any other computer. But any other computer which
tries to connect as the remote desktop to my laptop, will get only one
fixed image.
