I understand the situation. You answered the first question, you are using Gnome. Now please answer the second question and tell us what the VNC logs say. Since you are getting a display and mouse cursor, VNC is working. Your window manager is not. This is the case with 99% of the "problems" with VNC. You are not an exception. BTW - Please reply to the list. It makes it much easier on those of us with filters, and I don't have to quote so much to keep everyone else in the loop. -- William Hooper I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
