Hi, Since my original posting to freebsd-questions didn't give a single reply I'm trying here - maybe somebody is experiencing the same problem... I'm running in a strange problem using VNCviewer (VNC 3.3.7 built from ports) in fullscreen mode: vncviewer uses function key F8 to switch between normal and fullscreen mode. When I drop out of VNC fullscreen-mode using F8 I'm loosing the window decorations of VNCViewer under X. When pressing F8 again to bring up the vncviewer popup window that should allow me to go back to vnc fullscreen mode nothing happens. The only way to get back out again of vnc is to terminate the vnc-connection on the server-side in order to kill the vnc-client window running on my machine - really annoying. >From what I can tell this problem *might* have to do something with Gnome(desktop) handling the vnc-session and going in- and out of VNC fullscreen mode. Here's my environment: FreeBSD 5.3 Gnome 2.8 VNC 3.3.7 from ports all ports current "up to the minute" (i.e. I've done "portupgrade -arR" some days ago) Has anybody else experienced this problem? Anything that can be done against it? Thanks much in advance for your help, -ewald
