Package: tightvncserver
Version: 1.3.9-6.1+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The script /usr/bin/tightvncserver modifies provided geometry values so that
widths are a multiple of 4, and heights a multiple of 2.
My physical display is 1366x768, so this restriction prevents me from having
a virtual desktop of the matching size.
I have modified the script to remove this restriction and things are working
fine. Here's a patch which removes the relevant restrictions:
