Krdc in KDE4 vs KDE3

English Applications

Is is just me, or does the Krdc (KDE’s vnc client) in KDE-3 seem faster/slicker than the new version in KDE-4? I’m connecting to my remote system at work thru a VPN tunnel from home. All my remote graphics are a little slow that way, but with the KDE-4 version they seem even slower (more ghosting as I move windows around, etc).

Another thing I don’t like about KDE-4 version is that I can’t seem to hide the tab bar/window frame which just takes up space (I’ve already clicked No Borders for the KDE window).

In KDE3, the cursor is always local but it takes on the remote cursor image. With the KDE4 version you get the local cursor as a little black box and the remote cursor is separate and slower.

I know that Krdc is just a front end for a vnc client, but what was so different about the KDE3 version that accounts for these things?

what version of kde4 are you using? I’m using kde 4.1.3 and KRDC doesn’t do those things for me.

I am running it to remote in locally though. So some of that my be because of the local v VPN.

I’m on KDE 4.1.3. Which of “those things” are you referring to?

I don’t have two cursors and slow speed that you were talking about.
