Adding "+extension XInputExtension" to the vnc server launch doesn't work, either.
VNC version is: # aptitude show vnc4server Package: vnc4server State: installed Automatically installed: yes Version: 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu7 Priority: optional Section: universe/x11 I use xinetd to manage the listeners. My Xvnc file for xinetd is: service Xvnc { type = UNLISTED disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/bin/Xvnc server_args = -inetd :1 +extension XInputExtension -query localhost -geometry 1380x825 -depth 16 -once -fp /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc -DisconnectClients=1 -NeverShared passwordFile=/home/mwlang/.vncpasswd -extension XFIXES port = 5901 } I also tried removing -extension XFIXES, but that caused me to be unable to establish a connection with the VNC desktop. Or more precisely, connection was established and immediately dropped. -- Error starting gnome-settings-daemon while logged in via vnc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239342 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
