Description of problem: Running gnome in a pure vnc session on my RS/6000 produces strange results. The panels are "blacked-out". I switched themes twice and it got better, but the "blank" parts of the panel are still funky. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vnc-server-4.1.1-22 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install rawhide 2. Start a vncserver with gnome 3. Connect from another machine Actual results: Gnome panels are weird Expected results: Gnome looks normal Additional info: Here is a screenshot of what I'm referring to: http://www.flickr.com/photos/54655022@N00/
I've also seen this in vnc installations.
Paul: in any stable release, or only devel?
Apparently this is fixed in 4.1.1-26.
Sorry, my comment in IRC about "vnc-server works again, minus the weird gnome-panel bug" meant that vnc-server starts with 4.1.1-26 but still has this problem. Version 4.1.1-24 didn't even start. My apologies for the confusion.
