128 kbps going up here. With color-space reduction (-bgr233), heavy jpeg compression (-compresslevel 9), low jpeg quality (-quality 0), and tight encoding (-encodings "tight copyrect"), TightVNC isn't that bad; refresh rate is slow but it usually drops enough "refreshes" to keep mouse cursor more-or-less updated. And since we're tunneling through SSH, add its own compression (-C) too. Just don't expect it to be useful in art appreciation ;-) -- Cristian Gutierrez http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~crgutier [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tank: So what do you need?
