Bug 5045

Changing priority to High, as this is very important to my usage, as the system this is installed on is remote. I also looked at some alternatives, such as x11vnc but it does not seem to be as smooth as Xvnc (as used on a Mageia 1 system). I hope someone will rebuild this package soon.

Priority: Normal => High

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,

tiger vnc xorg 111 patch (fedora tigervnc-1.1.0-5.fc18)

This xorg 111 patch version don't use unexported GetMaster function.

I've apply this patch against the last mageia tiger-vnc package.
You can test the result here: ftp://ftp.rx3.org/pub/arc/pkg/tiger_vnc/1.1.0/

On my mageia/2 it seems to work.
More tests are needed.

The problem resurfaced in Mageia 3. Currently running Cauldron for Mageia 3.

IMHO, this bugs has never been officially corrected: the patch I've proposed has never been release...
One year later on my Mageia 2, it's run smoothly.

Hardware: i586 => All

I had a look at the package in cauldron: patches already have been synced from Fedora so the cauldron version should work now. 

I'll see if I can provide update candidates for MGA2 and MGA3.

See bug #10181
The update Alfonso Vera is preparing should fix you problem at the same time.

Same problem here, and unable to find and compile some .src.rpm for mageia 3 (x64): in any case (original or Comment 5 version) xserver110.patch fails.

What is the status of this bug ? Is there a good rpm somewhere ?

Precompiled packages work fine for Mageia 3.

But compilation of tigervnc-1.1.0-3.1.mga3.src.rpm fails ending by:

Anyway thank you for the upload !

Hi Vicent:
I can't reproduce your problem :-(

I build done 
mga2: tigervnc-1.1.0-3.1.mga2.src.rpm 
mga3: tigervnc-1.1.0-3.1.mga3.src.rpm 
    
rpmbuild --rebuild tigervnc-1.1.0-3.1.mgaX.src.rpm

Vincent, the Mageia 3 update candidate should be discussed in bug #10181, this one is now for the Mageia 2 update.

About your build problem, make sure you use openjdk-devel in version 1.6

Version: Cauldron => 2
Whiteboard: MGA2TOO => (none)

Is tigervnc-server-module intended only for headless servers?

I'm testing under virtualbox, using the procdure at
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=229781
and having the module loaded stops X from being displayed in
the guest.

I can ssh into it, and use vncviewer 127.0.0.1:5902, though so far only
see a black screen with the clipboard options, and the option to send
the primary selection to viewers.

If I don't load the module in Xorg.conf, then the script from
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10181#c11
works, so both the guest and the vncviewer can work with the same screen.

Looks like the problem in comment 15 is only under VirtualBox.

I tested on real hardware, and it's working.  I'll test x86_64 tomorrow.

Whiteboard: feedback => MGA2-32-OK

Advisory 5045.adv committed to svn.

Testing complete on x86_64.

I'll hold off validating this update until Mageia 3 has been tested too.

Whiteboard: MGA2-32-OK => MGA2-32-OK MGA2-64-OK

Validating the update.

Someone from the sysadmin team please push 5045.adv to updates.
