Ok, folks... The recent release of ChromiVNC Server alpha 5 (hot on the heels of alpha 4) has seen a few changes in the way that the server deals with screen updates. These latest offerings of vncPatches68k take these changes into account, and will hopefully provide a better 'feel' to using the server. The alpha 5 ChromiVNC Server has some similar functionality to that provided in the vncPatches68k for previous versions - update splitting and buffering. However, on my Duo 2300 the server still seems to 'block' for too long, and I suspect these features need a lot more tuning based on processor type etc. (How's your 5300 Jonathan...?) I have therefore released three versions of vncPatches68k for alpha 5: vncPatches68k-a5 : the standard version, with only some minor tweaks vncPatches68k-a5nostagger : does not perform update splitting/staggering vncPatches68k-a5nobuffer : does not perform any update buffering at all I don't really know which will be best for you (I find the standard one works best on my Duo 2300, but newer Macs with G3/G4s may work best with the one that does no buffering at all) - go and download them, try them out, and then please let me know, so I can figure out the best strategy... http://wrench.et.ic.ac.uk/adrian/software/vnc/ As always, place the downloaded file into your Extensions folder, making sure there are no other vncPatches files in there. Then restart, fire up the server, and see how it feels - and let me know!
