window, despite both the client and server running X11 with identical glx drivers and modules loaded.
What GL modules the computer displaying the VNC view has would be irrelevant, as vncviewer does not do GL.
The problem is that the DRI infrastructure directly writes to the frame buffer, so the VNC module does not know the window has been updated - therefor it does not know to scrape the pixels and send them.
Moving the window "dirties" it, and then the VNC server will send the pixels.
I thought there was a setting for the VNC server to tell it to scrape the screen every "X" often, just for things like that - or perhaps that option only exists under the Windows servers, as many old nasty Windows apps write directly to the screen, and Unix apps just aren't supposed to do that.
You would have the same sort of failure if you were running and XVideo app like Xine - since the actual video is in the overlay, all VNC would see is a pink rectangle.
IIRC, stock RH7.3 runs XFree86 4.2 - or have you upgraded to 4.3? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
