Hi Gilles

Interesting. I have never heard about this problem.

The difference between 4.1.1+X4.3.0-32 and 4.1.1+X4.3.0-31 is only
that IPv6 support is added and that build dependencies are slightly
different. I can not see that there are any functional difference
between those two versions that explain this.

I think your problem is that you have a screensaver that do not work
well with vnc. It can be a time sync problem or simply that vnc do not
trigger input events. I can not really tell for sure.

It could also be related to the nvidia drivers, but I can not tell that
for sure. Or KDE...

Best regards,

// Ola
