For me, I've always found x11vnc to work with everything. It even worked with my Xorg/Beryl setup...once ;-) Download from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libvncserver Install is simple: ./configure && make && make install Create password like: x11vnc -storepasswd And then created launcher script: #!/bin/sh killall x11vnc && x11vnc -display :0 -shared -forever \ -allow <comma,seperated,list,of,ips (workIP mainly)> \ -usepw -logfile ~/.vnc/logfile.log -bg \ -cursor none This has been pretty rock solid for me. -Lup -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
