Description Mircea Kitsune 2014-12-31 16:47:10 UTC
Since an update a few KDE versions ago (I don't remember which precisely), Krfb introduces a heavy inconvenience: The checkbox to enable desktop sharing is always disabled when the program is started, and needs to be enabled manually.

This is especially a problem because I have autologin enabled, and leave Krfb running on my desktop PC when I'm away from home. In case of a power failure, the system would previously reboot and VNC would reactivate. Due to this bug however, Krfb starts up as disabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Krfb.
2. Enable the checkbox "Enable Desktop Sharing", visible on the main window.
3. Exit Krfb.
4. Start Krfb again.

Actual Results:  
The checkbox is now disabled, it doesn't stay enabled.

Expected Results:  
The checkbox should maintain its state between application restarts.

KDE 4.14.3.
