broken in PHATSlacko 5502 Subject description: fix not working in PHATSlacko 5.5.02 |
|
The above fix (my previous post in this thread) for the non-functional shift-key is not working for me in PHATSlacko 5.5.02 (though it did work in lupu528.)
I'm wondering if the /usr/X11R7/bin/x11vnc-gui file is being over-ridden somewhere in this version of Puppy?

This package is probably a bit old so I would recommend tigervnc.
This package works in slacko http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/tigervnc/pkg/14.0/, grab the txz extension, it will install by clicking. It requires libtasn1 which is in the PPM (type it in the search box), install that first. The menu entry with icon is created in network (for the client) and to set up the server just read some of the documentation, it's pretty easy.
The pic is puppy VNC server, slackware as the client

tigervnc server Subject description: where is the documentation? |
|
Thanks. I got the package installed no problem. The viewer has a menu entry and seems to work fine.
I've been trying to locate the documentation to configure the server and have had no luck. Is there a config file, or do I need to do all the configuration from the command line?

x11vnc shift key fix Subject description: How I fixed the non-working shift key problem on vnc client |
|
Adding the nomodtweak flag to the /usr/X11R7/bin/x11vnc-gui file did not fix the inoperable vnc client shift key for me, but adding it to line two of the root/Startup/Start-x11vnc file worked.
I am using Lupu528 with x11vnc server, and RealVNC viewer on a Windows pc. I added "PERMIT" to the firewall for port 5900/tcp. All works fine! But it was handy using teamviewer to keep a parallel connection open whilst fault-finding and restartng the vnc server over and over.
Hope this helps.

I've switched back to Lupu528 and tried your version of the fix instead of mine, and it's working.
I needed both "-nomodtweek" and "-remap less-comma" in the root/Startup/Start-x11vnc file but overall a simpler fix than the one I was using previously. Thanks!

Where did the x11vnc pet go? It's no longer listed up there.
I tried getting the latest from my packagemanger, and it was more complicated than just running this one, did not provide a way tell it to run at startup, and failed at first and only worked after it opened a GUI that then launched a terminal window.
I want that pet. It just works.
Edit: I tried getting it through archive.org. They have the forum, but not the file. And although it says the page is available on the web, I am told the attachment was removed.
Seeing as this whole thing hasn't been edited in a long time, I find that odd. Did something break and anything that has two attachments now only have one?

Hi,
i guess you mean this one:
x11vnc_server-0.9.14.pet 2MB
I updated the package to the current x11vnc server 0.9.14.
Have fun.

Yes. That's the file I wanted. Thanks so much!
Thanks for updating it, too That fixed a keyboard problem I had in the previous versions, where I had to use a weird workaround to input certain characters.
Only downside right now is that it seems to make my UltraVNC viewer (on Windows 7) hang and stop responding after a while. I had to download RealVNC to finish this post.
Edit: tweaking some settings seems to have fixed the issue. I just told it to use the compression method it thought was best.

xllvnc server in Slacko 6.3.0 Subject description: xllvnc server in Slacko 6.3.0 hack |
|
I installed x11vnc_server-0.9.14.pet in Slacko 6.3.0 and it did not work.. I was able to get to work by also intalling x11vnc-0.9.14-i486-1gv.txz from the PPM. Install the .pet first, then install the x11vnc-0.9.14-i486-1gv.txz. The network menu will show "vnc-server" and "x11vnc-server". Only "vnc-server" works. You can delete the "x11vnc-server" entry by deleting the file /usr/share/applications/x11vnc-server.desktop.
