[gtk-vnc-devel] Some keys are duplicated, some don't appear at all!



I have been using your VNC widget, now I am using it in a second application. The first is the Telanetix main video conference suite, which you can see on our web page at www.telanetix.com. I used it to replace the old Tight VNC viewer which we were using up until we started using Fedora Core 8. FC8 + DPMS + Tight VNC viewer were fighting in ways I cannot begin to explain... Hence I hacked together a simple viewer using your widget... It was a slight adjustment to your example widget.

This second one is in a video conference tool for hospitals in Australia. You see, there is a need for specialists in every town, since every town has an emergency room. Unfortunately, having those towns stocked with every type of specialist that might be needed would produce an economic nightmare for their socialized medical system, so they want to use video conferencing to get specialist input in areas that don't have the specialist.

A problem that I am having with the VNC widget is that keystrokes are not being faithfully transmitted. This was not a problem with my first application, since it is an "interface-less" viewer. With this current viewer, however, I need to be able to faithfully transmit keystrokes. In a lot of cases, when I hold down shift and hit a key, nothing is transmitted. Sometimes, when I hit a key, it is doubled or tripled. I have witnessed this in my current application, but also in the example program.

The version I am using is the mercurial-pull just after OpenGL support was added. I understand there has been a lot of work since then... Has this been fixed?


Thank you for your support
