Hello,
Got no response last time I posted on this, so I thought I'd try once more
before I report it as a bug...
I'm running WinVNC 3.3.4 server as a service on an XP Pro box with the
latest service packs. The XP box is part of a networked workgroup, so the
Fast User Switching "feature" (which I gather causes problems) is turned
off. I'm connecting to it with a client on a sun solaris X machine (x2vnc
1.4), so that I can control the XP machine with the XP monitor but the
solaris keyboard and mouse. I've only recently upgraded the windows box
from one which ran Win 2000 and the whole setup used to work fine, but now
in XP I get the following problem:
What happens is the windows box stops receiving input from the keyboard.
The mouse still works normally, but typing does nothing except jump the
mouse cursor around a bit. Its not the problem with option keys getting
stuck down - that happens too, but then the mouse behaviour changes as
well. I can fix it temporarily by waving the mouse around on the windows
box and holding down a key; eventually it finds a "magic spot" where the
input works again, and generally keeps working until I click the mouse
somewhere else. The behaviour is application independent - I've seen it in
the OS, and a good half a dozen apps as well.
- rob.
