for the empathy support of low color support i did a new report. so please head over to Bug #514666 ** Description changed: - UPDATE: as of lucid and vinagre packge 2.29.1-0ubuntu1 (along with it's - dependencies) there is support for low color depths. but so far it seems - that empathy can't make use of that. it would be great if it could, - because it would make desktop sharing some what usable over most - people's internet connections. + UPDATE: For Empathy's support of low color depth see Bug #514666 Binary package hint: vinagre I installed Hardy Alpha 4, and updated the packages so I am up to date with Alpha 6. When I tried to remotely connect to a computer on my LAN and it was so slow (and unusable)on Vinagre / Remote Desktop client. I noticed TS Client had disabled the option for VNC, installing xvnc4viewer enabled it. Xvnc4viewer was much faster and usable.

I'm having the same issue as scroobious. In fact, although using bojo42's karmic backport, using empathy to share desktop, I'm not enjoying low color. Is it supposed to just happen?

[Bug 203782] Re: Support low color depth to improve speed
I'm using the backported vinagre, which helps. But I have a question: Is it possible to set a lower color as the default? I'm guessing, if some command line call could be passed for low color, that the default low-color setting could be set via gconf-editor at /desktop/gnome/url- handlers/vnc/command. Right now it's vinagre %s. I'm trying to help my dad half-way across the U.S., and for some reason we can't get any vnc to work except when he shares his desktop through Empathy. Empathy then calls vinagre, and vinagre defaults to maximum colors; this makes helping him nearly impossible, and it's taking up my entire winter break. If there's a way to make that default to low color, I'd be one happy unpaid tech slave. -- Support low color depth to improve speed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree: xvnc4viewer is my viewer of preference - it even auto-detects link speeds and adjusts colour depth accordingly.
