This seems worth a /. post! /me cowers in fear at the thought of a thousand mouse cursors all fighting over a textbox widget. :) The VNC server still needs some debugging and tweaking. It looks like the 'tight' encoding has a bug that will randomly crash the VNC client. It was having problems with getting very slow when more than a few clients were connected, but those might have been fixed. The primary limitation is my bandwidth- navi.picogui.org is my mail server, sitting in my dorm room on the college's LAN. It has pretty good bandwidth, but VNC is also quite a bandwidth hog. I was planning on improving the demo, though probably after 0.44 is released. It should have a longer "intro to picogui" text, and demo more widgets. It would also be nice to show real picogui apps in action, but most of those would be a security hazard. (I'm already running the demo under its own user, but I'm paranoid...) I was planning on setting up a User Mode Linux to act as a sandbox for the demo environment. Another nice feature would be to have the option of joining an existing demo environment, or creating a private demo server. I could probably do this with some CGI scripting on navi, but I try to avoid web-stuff usually :) > > Ciao, > Thomas > > Micah Dowty wrote: > >I set up a VNC demo server at navi.picogui.org, if you'd like to try out > >some of PicoGUI's features without installing anything. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte > are you planning your Web Server Security?
