The vnc X server is no accelerated X server. It also lacks several modern extentions to the X11 protocol. The error message is your program's way to say it needs something it cannot get. > > Another program (wavebuild from Ricardo) gives the message > "3-D graphics are not available" > and the canvas in which a 3-D graphics should appear remains blank. This is the same here. Compared to XFree, the Xvnc server serves the basic X11 operations. > > If I start the same program on the local X-server, the > problem does not appear. That's an accellerated X server. If you switch that one to a *vga mode so it does not use the hardware acceleration of your video-board, it will give several problems. > > Have you any idea where I can get more information? You might get the RENDER or 3-D extentions in a vnc display if you use http://xf4vnc.sourceforge.net/. Then, at display:0, you have best of both worlds CBee _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
