I have found this bug in this topic: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdenetwork/+bug/301448 *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** (In reply to comment #1) > I have found this bug in this topic: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdenetwork/+bug/301448 This is also the case for me. Broken with the nvidia driver (version 173 & 185). Working with the nvidia driver disabled on Kubuntu 9.10. After some testing I can report that it works fine with: - an Intel 945GME using xf86-video-intel 2.9.1, - a GeForce FX 5200 using xf86-video-nv 2.1.15, - the same GeForce using xf86-video-nouveau 0.0.10_git20091221. It doesn't work when using the 'official' nvidia-173xx driver (173.14.22). (All this on an up-to-date Arch Linux KDE 4.3.4) I confirm this. Not working on systems that uses NVidia: x11-video-nvidiaG02-190.53-9.1.i586 nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-default-190.53_2.6.31.5_0.1-8.1.i586 krfb-4.3.1-4.3.i586 on openSUSE 11.2 on openSUSE 11.2 the same effect happens with vino-2.28.0-2.5 (Gnmome RFB). However with rfb-0.6.1-682.1 it is working fine. FYI: rfb do not always displays the colors correctly. But x11vnc seems to work perfect. vino works fine even on NVidia systems if compiz is disabled on the server. Maybe krfb also works fine without compiz, but I've not tested it. > Maybe krfb also works fine without compiz, but I've not tested it.
I don't know about compiz but I tried it without "desktop effects" and it was the same. You need to use an open sourced driver for them to work with krfb.
Saw this today. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/353126 Sounds like the problem. Maybe krfb should have a --noxdamage option as well. Just to confirm that this bug is still valid on: krfb-16.08.2-1.1 (version 5.0) KDE Plasma 5.8.3 KDEframework: 5.26.0 Qt 5.6.1 xcb Os: openSUSE Leap 42.2 Using intel integrated graphics (xf86-video-intel) I have turned off compositor (desktop effects) and tried several configurations with vertical sync settings. The effect is the same - when you log in to the krfb server with any vnc viewer you only see initial screen which is no refreshed later. Mouse and keyboard are working fine but on the remote client you can't see any changes on the screen. Btw x11vnc works without problem even with compositor effects turned on Similar bugs: Bug 356782 and Bug 363217 There is a workaround posted by Alexey: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356782#c6 With this workaround krfb should work correctly and you should be able to connect to VNC even with active desktop effects. Edit ~/.config/krfbrc ... and add the following lines: [FrameBuffer] preferredFrameBufferPlugin=qt *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 356782 *** |
