Re: [gtk-vnc-devel] mouse pointer doesn't follow up in viewer...

[Rob Stoddard <rstoddard telanetix com>]

I found that the tight encoding causes the TightVNC server that I have 
to not transmit pointer coordinates.  I commented out the Tight 
encodings in the capabilities exchange, and the mouse pointer moves 
normally now.


Thank you,

Rob Stoddard
