issues like setting a password
|

- design goal of KRfb is to make it as easy to use as possible. I tried to

limit functionality whereever possible.
|

- to limit the required testing efforts I try to limit the number of provided
|

codecs.
|

As far as I can tell there are three major classes of VNC clients: the
|

original ones that support RRE, CoRRE and Hextiles, the Tridia ones
|

with additional ZLib and sometimes HexZLib support and the TightVNC one
|
||||
with additional TightVNC encoding. So I will have four primary codecs to
|
||||
support: Raw as a fall-back and for local traffic, Hextiles for original
|
||||
VNC clients, ZLib for the Tridia ones and TightVNC. I'll keep RRE
|

because I already ported it, but should it make any trouble I'll kick it
|

out. CoRRE won't be supported, and probably neither HexZLib. 4 codecs
|
||||
ought to be enough for everybody. TightVNC is the preferred codec and the
|
||||
one that clients should use.
|

- the original x0rfbserver has a features for selecting the port number
|

automatically. I skipped that because it is too complicated on the client

side, but I may change my opinion when KDE supports SLP or a similar
