Hi all, Nikita Youshchenko, has generously provided me with a patch that allows Xvnc 4.1.1 (and I assume 4.1.2) to support resize with Xvnc and XRandR extension: Grab the patch here: http://yoush.homelinux.org:8079/nikita/vnc-xrandr/
To use it, just give multiple '-geometry' options to the Xvnc command line. Nikita asked me to post this message to the list on his behalf because he says the messages he sends himself aren't making it. So now I've seen two patches, one for reflect and rotate and now one for resize. Is there any way we can get these two patches into the current server? Then I guess the next step could be XRandR 1.2 protocol support since both these patches are based on the much older 1.1. Is there a separate development list where this question would be more appropriate? I would like to hear feedback from someone that works on the code.
