Thanx a lot for the help! I did exactly as U suggested but really do nor know how to
interpret the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
vkavalov-ss20{vkavalov}<2> vncserver
New 'X' desktop is vkavalov-ss20:3
Starting applications specified in /users/vkavalov/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /users/vkavalov/.vnc/vkavalov-ss20:3.log
vkavalov-ss20{vkavalov}<3> vncviewer
VNC server supports protocol version 3.3 (viewer 3.3)
VNC authentication succeeded
Desktop name "vkavalov's X desktop (vkavalov-ss20:3)"
Connected to VNC server, using protocol version 3.3
VNC server default format:
8 bits per pixel.
True colour: max red 7 green 7 blue 3, shift red 0 green 3 blue 6
Using default colormap and translating from BGR233. Pixel format:
8 bits per pixel.
True colour: max red 7 green 7 blue 3, shift red 0 green 3 blue 6
Got 199 exact BGR233 colours out of 256
Using 1 existing shared colours
Same machine: preferring raw encoding
