Public bug reported: When connecting to a VNC server (vino) on a machine using desktop- effects, the screen is never updated. Mouse/Keyboard commands still get sent but the effects are only shown after reconnecting. This is probably because of the way vnc detects changes.
This has been reported into beryl: http://bugs.beryl-project.org/trac/ticket/385 It is also known for x11vnc: http://www.dslinux.org/blogs/pepsiman/?p=73 If Ubuntu wants desktop-effects to be enabled by default, vnc will have to be updated. ** Affects: desktop-effects (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Affects: vino (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Affects: vnc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Also affects: desktop-effects (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Also affects: vino (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- [feisty] No screen updates when using desktop-effects https://launchpad.net/bugs/77442 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
