I have been trying to use both VNCDimension and VNCThing on my Ti
PowerBook under 10.1. I often get very poor performance with mouse
tracking and keyclick delivery using either Ethernet at work or
Airport onto a cable modem at home.
This seems to effect both clients at different times but in all cases
the problems do not occur with the AT&T viewer under the Classic
Environment.
Bizarely I get more problems at work over Ethernet than at home over
Airport. I am mostly talking to Xvnc on Linux but I can see
similarly problems with NT VNC servers.
Also:
-- neither of the OSX clients support the use of commmand-2 and
command-3 for the extra mouse buttons which the AT&T one does.
-- VNCDimension does not like UK keyboards: just where is # meant to be?
I would really like to know if anyone else has had strange problems
with VNC viewers under OSX.
Regards,
Simon.
