Hello, How feasible would it be for Xvnc to support XRandR at this point? I spoke to the developer who added rotate and reflect functionality from the XRandR extension to Xvnc version 3.3.7. He's not interested in this stuff any more it seems but he claims, regarding resize support specifically: "Resizing probably wouldn't be that hard to implement, from what I remember of that code." But I'm not sure he's aware of the system changes from 3.3.7 to 4.1.2. Alan, the xf4vnc developer says xrandr support could technically be added to his project but he doesn't have the time to do it at the moment. Since resizing, rotating and reflecting XRandR already work with the main X server; I'm not sure where the issues with porting this over to Xvnc lie. Especially since Xvnc doesn't have to deal with graphics card drivers, monitor modes, etc. If someone who knows more about this could enlighten me that would be great, thanks.
