vncviewer -owncmap -truecolour If you don't use -owncmap, the viewer uses the default colour map (which makes - -depth and -truecolour useless). IMHO, vncviewer should either automatically use a private colourmap when one of those options are used, or print a warning message. - -- Grant McDorman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Sr. Software Design Consultant Cedara Software Corp. <URL:http://www.cedara.com> (formerly I.S.G.
