K lets see how I go with this one.
Hi All
Ive got the latest builds and trying to get Ubuntu desktop showing fully on
the client. I only see the background, and the cursor in the TurboVNC
session. Right click doesnt do anything, no keyboard shortcuts do anything,
and the Unity menu doesnt show, nor does the Gnome classic menu show when I
switch between those on the server. On my server desktop I have one
desktop shortcut icon for the terminal application. On the client F8 works
I can change settings on TurboVNC there.
To get the desktop icons showing the workaround appears to be:
On the server
- kill the vncserver for display :1
- change the desktop background
- restart the vncserver
On the client
- connect from TurboVNC client or java client and the desktop icons now
appear.
The unity menu or gnome classic menu still do not show.
My Environment:
- Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit on both client and server physical machines, both
intel 64 bit cpu, server has an Nvidia with pbuffer support.
- turbovnc-1.1_amd64.deb on both client and server
- VirtualGL-2.3._amd64.deb on server
- glxinfo on server shows glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation, p in the
'drw typ' column
- vglserver_config all usual, no limits in place
- On the server I tried with gnome3 classic (installed in Ubuntu as
gnome-shell package), unity (by itself is the 3D one I believe) and
unity-2D and appears no difference. This was done by choosing those
options prior to logging in to server - not sure if that actually sets the
second display, :1, properly though.
thanks
Shanon
