I'm not sure if this is an Intrepid beta or KDE 4 issue, but...
I use my Kubuntu machine remotely over an in-house LAN from a Windows XP box. I've been happily accessing it via a Windows UltraVNC client until I did the upgrade to 8.10. There are now a number of bugs:
- the only encoding that now seems to work reliably is 'Tight'. Hextile encoding, in particular, gives an image that looks like the screen has been divided into vertical stripes and each stripe is duplicated next to itself. See attached image.
- Mouse and keyboard actions are being passed through to the remote machine BUT screen updates are not getting back to the viewer. The image in the viewer does not change, regardless of what I do. Reconnection does not help: it's the same image every time.
- When the connection is closed by the viewer, Krfb does not recognise this and reports that the connection is still active.
This is not an UltraVNC issue. I've tried RealVNC and a number of other viewers and I get the same errors every time.
