Maintaining of vnc could be really easy.. What do you think > about it?? Is this bad idea?? I think that it is a good idea, however it seems to be a rather different software that the current vnc-server. And to have the client you have to build the vnc-server since they come from the same source. So it is not a replacement for the vnc server package, but rather a usefull complementary package (if I'm not wrong it replaces more or less x0vncserver from the vncserver package). Now you may use x11vnc for the distro specific bits, like in anaconda (but I don't know enough to comment that), or the /etc/rc.d/init.d/vncserver. Anyway you could allready submit x11vnc to extras, there are packages in rpmforge, you may want to coordinate with them. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
