Am I crazy here or what. Can someone else please try this.
I would be content to use x0vnc server since it works fine, however it does not support copy/paste between windows os windows and the vnc window. The X11vnc server does support this feature (well mostly) but has the screwy missing characters in opera.
... and of course the realvnc server requires system mods to get it remotely display "display:0".
So it would be great to get x11vnc to work right. Any help would be appreciated.
----------------------
I'm currently using tc3alpha5 and Xvesa.
edit: Here's the x11vnc output:
tc@tstbox:~$ sudo x11vnc -display :0

******************************************************************************
Have you tried the x11vnc '-ncache' VNC client-side pixel caching feature yet?
The scheme stores pixel data offscreen on the VNC viewer side for faster
retrieval. It should work with any VNC viewer. Try it by running:
x11vnc -ncache 10 ...
One can also add -ncache_cr for smooth 'copyrect' window motion.
