Hello, I've been using the MS IE java viewer on the laptop, seems great. Locks up sometimes, but that seems easily fixed by disconnecting, reconnecting, and vigorously clicking on the border of any window.
I tried to get the same fast response using my unix-based netscape. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any tight encoding, compresslevel, nor any jpeg quality options. Is tight encoding built into the unix-based java viewer, or is the nontight viewer somehow getting invoked? I had nontight vnc compiled before compiling tightnc (from scratch, not as an upgrade). Fred P.S. I tried running the java viewer outside of netscape. For solaris, the syntax that works seems to be: java -classpath .:/home/fma/Installs/local/vnc/classes vncviewer HOST mali.doe.carleton.ca PORT 5801 However, this generates the internal error: java.lang.InternalError: Display type (TrueColor) and depth (8) not supported. at sun.awt.motif.MToolkit.<init>(Compiled Code) at java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(Compiled Code) at java.awt.Window.getToolkit(Compiled Code) at java.awt.Frame.addNotify(Compiled Code) at java.awt.Window.pack(Compiled Code) at optionsFrame.<init>(Compiled Code) at vncviewer.init(Compiled Code) at vncviewer.main(Compiled Code) Not being a java programmer, I decided not to pursue this any further at the now. However, if anyone can recognize a likely cause and/or a quick fix, I'd appreciate hearing it. Thanks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fred Ma Department of Electronics Carleton University, Mackenzie Building 1125 Colonel By Drive Ottawa, Ontario Canada K1S 5B6 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ========================================================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
