I figure with all the gnome extensions and plugins I implemented yesterday without rebooting (they all seemed to be working without it, so why do it), that something messed up how its dialog was working until the reboot? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Now it was early in my configuration, and I have done a lot of gnome customization since.

I have been using vncviewer in f16 without any problems - the way I use it is to set up an ssh tunnel forwarding a local port at the client end to the usual 5900 port at the vnc-server end. So I run the ssh tunnel in one terminal window and then run the vncviewer command as below in a separate terminal window. The local client call is then using a different localhost port which gets forwarded to the tunnel using: vncviewer -passwd /path/to/password-file localhost:55900 Of course I have previously used vnc to generate the password file which is shared between the server and client machines. Here the local port if 55900 which gets forwarded to the normal 5900 port at the server end.. The server is set up to run vnc-server with the password file defined to match that of the client which calls in. This has worked without any problems at all in f16 (x86_64) -- mike c -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

How about starting vncviewer from the command line, and looking what it reports?
