Agreed, but we are able to reproduce it by starting vncviewer, enetering fullscreen mode and then just wait some 5 to 10 minutes - keyboard will be disconnected. We have this on three identical machines all with updated Ubuntu 10.4 32 bit). We suspect that the error reoccurred since on of the updates in February (for some time before, it worked fine). >> I think we will simply restart the vncviewer via the powerbutton by >> modifying /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh ... >> >> It would be even better if we could like to "remind" the vncviewer with >> that script to reconnect the keyboard with the server.

As I workaround, I was only wondering if there is a message that could be passed to the running vncviewer instance to "reconnect" the keyboard or something of that kind. Another idea might be to give us an opportunity to reconnect the keyboard with some special mouse actions. By the way: If I am in fullscreen mode (with keyboard still functioning) and press F8 in order to turn off fullscreen mode, it will not allow that (screen flickers but does not leave fullscreen mode). So the only way to end fulscreen mode is to end the viewer (its not a problem for us, just FYI). However, as you suggested, I've added the file Vncviewer with *grabKeyboard: off and we're testing that right now. Thanks anyway.. Il will also systematically test TigerVNC viewers (newest beta) versus our TurboVNC server (newest beta) ASAP and tell you the result. I'll do this when the coworkers are gone.. Andreas
