This is why I wanted you to test setting *grabKeyboard to false. It is possible that that will do exactly what you want. Also, this is why I wanted you to test other VNC viewers. If, for instance, TigerVNC works properly, then I can look at what they're doing and do likewise. Since you can easily reproduce the bug, it makes sense for you to perform these tests. > Plus, it would be great if you could examine why the F8 does not always > work as expected when the user tries to leave fullscreen mode (When I > press F8 while in fullscreen, the tvnc popup show up, then I deselect > "Fullscreen" but I will end up with not a real Ubuntu window but > something mixed..: This is the first I've heard of that issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ VirtualGL-Users mailing list VirtualGL-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/virtualgl-users
