its within the vnc session. once I run vncviewer and run it in fullscreen mode, its just as if I'm at the local machine (of course). dragging windows opaquely in my local x11 environment (no vnc in sight or running) has always been fine since the early days of xfree86 and xinerama. but at various times with vnc, when you move a window from one physical screen across the screen border to the next phys screen (again, in xinerama mode where you 'glue' one edge to another to make one large logical display) the expose-event bug appears. the work-around on the 3.x server was to use that backingStore config switch to let the server do the refresh (the actual x-server). this was needed on my matrox card just for vnc - nothing else that I ran needed that backingStore=enabled option. but it did no harm, so I left it in. however, with vnc 4.x, even that backingStore switch doesn't help. eventually I'll test with a full 4.x suite - but for now, my server has 'state' info that I'd rather not lose and so until its time to reboot or restart the vncserver, I'm stuck at running 3.3.7 at the server and any viewer I wish (of course). the combo of the 3.3.7 server and the 4.x viewer seems to tickle the refresh-event bug. if I can do any debugging, I'm glad to help. I can test on linux and freebsd. thanks, /bryan _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
