I don't know who are the devs of vino, but they could have a look to the
realvnc server I use for years in Windows, it has an 3 desktop options that
apply "While connected":
* Remove wallpaper
* Remove background pattern
* Disable user interface effects
beside the "Capture Method" options
* Poll for changes to the desktop
* Use VNC hooks to track changes (default)
§Poll console windows for updates (default)
* Use alpha-blended windows (default)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: vino
Vino, the built in VNC server in Ubuntu, has had a problem for many
releases where it won't update the display when connected remotely if
compositing is enabled.
I honestly don't know why it was shipped with this version since
compositing is now required and enabled by default, but Vino doesn't
work if compositing is enabled.
After upgrading to Natty there is no user-facing way to disable
compositing, so the built-in remote control application is now
completely useless.
This is a core functionality of a desktop operating system and it has
been broken in Ubuntu for several major releases ( see bug 353126
which was opened on 2009-4-1).
If if it's not a core functionality to everyone and that's just my
opinion, it doesn't make any sense to ship a desktop OS with a broken
remote control service. I don't know of any other desktop OS that
ships with a remote desktop functionality that is completely broken
out of the box.
