Vista - Personal Edition - No Options pop up

2007-06-15 Thread Andrew Wilcox
Just updated from 4.2.6 to 4.2.8 hoping this would resolve issue but it did not. During installation of 4.2.8 the Options pop up appeared and I configured a password. When installation was complete, I permitted VNC Server in Windows Defender and okayed it to the Windows Firewall. A right click o

Hi Duncan, The most likely cause of problems is that the application you're using doesn't cope with X visuals properly, and requires that they have a specific format, e.g. RGB888, rather than allowing arbitrary compatible formats such as BGR888, etc. You can use the -pixelformat option instead of

Thanks for the reply. I will try that. I do know on my regular X server, it didn't work right until I had the depth set right (I think 32). Now the xdpyinfo shows pixel depths of several different levels on the X server, while VNC only shows two (1 and whatever depth is specified). So I didn't k

I propose a VNC connection from my warehouse (viewer) to my store (server). The warehouse will access software at the store but I need the ability to print the reports created, at the warehouse and not at the store. Can I configure VNC so that I access from the remote location yet print out the in

I was able to correct this in Vista by right clicking on the VNC server icon and select "Run as Administrator". Follow the prompts to enter your logon password and it now works for me to connect from XP to Vista. FYI, Ron - Original Message - From: "Caricofe, Bradley" <[EMAIL PROTEC
