Hi,
Just recently I've started getting this message when running Evolution through an ssh tunnel. Evolution has slowed down a lot over the same period of time.
What is the extention "RENDER" and how do I get it back on my display?
mknecht@Gentoo2 mknecht $ !ssh ssh -X -C -c blowfish -l mark wizard.myvnc.com Password: Last login: Mon Apr 26 11:52:21 2004 from 199.108.40.170 mark@Wizard mark $ !evo evolution --disable-sound Xlib: extension "RENDER" missing on display "localhost:10.0".
Evolution has become almost useless based on how slow it is now.
Is this message referring to my local machine where I'm displaying the app, or to the remote machine where Evolution is running.
Hi,
I never received any answers to this, but have managed to find the cause, or at least a work around. Something happens with the newest versions of openssh that stop the RENDER attribute on the local end being visible at the remote end. Downgrading ssh solved this problem, at least for the short term.
Possibly someone knows of a new configuration item to allow openssh-3.8 to work like 3.7 did?
Anyway, just thought I'd send this for the record.
Cheers, Mark _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
