> Subject: VNC's right-button problem
>
> We're noticing more Solaris apps which don't work with VNC, first of all HP
> Openview and now CA Autosys.  Right click doesn't get processed correctly,
> making the app unusable.
>
> The problem's been raised on the group before in Feb 2001 ->
> http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/archives/2001-02/0587.html and a year
> later by the same person ->
> http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/archives/2002-01/0606.html
>
> Seem to understand the problem, where newer versions of VNC support 5 button
> mice, and apps assume that right-clicks always come from the last available
> button (button#5) rather than button#2.
>
> Has anyone produced a patch for this, and if so, any word on it being
> incorporated into future versions of VNC?
