This is excellent. I had been using the VNC packages for the stable
version of Debian (woody) which are a patched 3.3.3 with the Tight
encoding. I upgraded to version 3.3.6 of VNC and find the automatic
detection works very well, and ZRLE indeed seems to be very nice even on
slow links.

Thanks for this information!
