Response times on mobile phones

2009-02-10 Thread Steve Thompson
Hi,

I use a Nokia E51 to connect to my RealVNC server and when I have a Wifi
connection the response time between pressing a button and the server
responding is instant.

When I can't get a Wifi connection and connected via an access point, the
response is noticably slower - is there a way I can get this nearer to the
Wifi speed?

Thanks, Steve.

RE: Xvnc + XDMCP

2009-02-10 Thread sbremal
Thanks for your answer. You're right, the BSD machine has a local istallation
of XDM, X11 and VNC. I am a happy user :) of Symbian on E90, for which the VNC
viewer got ported (unfortunately no X server port yet), so I can have full
access to my home server over 3G phone even from the office with strict
firewall.

As far as I understood when Xvnc (or the vncserver wrapper) is started, an X
server and a VNC server is started in the same process. Then this Xvnc process
should contact the local XDM for the login window ("-query localhost"
argument), which does not happen. Xvnc does not even try to send the XDMCP
query packet to XDM. XDM is running fine.

Could the FreeBSD port of VNC be the problem?

Just spent too many hours to give up now... The workaround now is to (1) log
in to the server with Putty, (2) start the Xvnc manually, (3) exit from Putty,
(4) start the VNC viewer on the phone. Ideally (1), (2) and (3) could be saved
if the login would be handled by Xvnc through XDM (and Xvnc started from
inetd).

Cheers,
Balazs

Balazs:

Well, this may not be the right forum, since it's an X question, but
we're all here to help one another; I'm no X whiz, but here's my
guess ...

Is your FreeBSD machine running as an X display being managed by XDMCP?

IIRC, this protocol implies that the machine on which xdm is running is
the X server, usually running with very limited resources.  I believe
that many, if not most, of the programs that run on an xdm-managed X
server reside elsewhere; that's why they came up with a different
protocol.  This is not to say that U couldn't do it by running xdm
instead of a full-blown server (which is what Xvnc is), but what U
want to do is run the viewer application (xvncviewer), not the server,
and connect back to your xdm-managed X server.

HTH and isn't too far off the mark (like I said, I'm no X guru!).
