TigerVNC works on x64 Windows7 for me. Even dual screens down to single screen with scroll. Response is a little sluggish but works otherwise.

Where are the docs for the Windoze version? Linux docs don't translate well to Windoze specific issues. I chose TightVNC over TigerVNC for our site years ago mainly due to TightVNC's more complete docs, solid and reliable installer, and very active development. I was hoping to come back and find a more complete and active project. Our site consists mainly of CentOS/RHEL and various Microsoft OSes. RHEL/CentOS 6 (as well as Fedora) come with TigerVNC in the main distribution and works wonderfully. It would be ideal to use the same VNC flavor on all platforms. This is especially distressing now that we've migrated all Win32/64 machines to TightVNC and found the very vexing "stuck key syndrome" that has persisted apparently for many years in multiple versions. Everyone's complaining now. I want out of TightVNC for Win32/64 but I see no viable alternatives for a low-budget operation like ours. I suppose I'll have to try installing TigerVNC again on a test machine and see if I can struggle through the installation and configuration. If I find it useable I'll come back and write a real review. If not, I don't have time to beat a dead horse. The multiple reports of the "stuck keys" or "repeat keys" in the TightVNC bug tracker have been mostly ignored as far back as 2002. The TightVNC mailing list archives aren't of much use to me either as they can't be searched. Maybe I'll try to build TightVNC from tarball source on a CentOS 6 machine using the mingw32/64 cross-compiler to see if we can figure out what's causing the stuck keys if I get perturbed enough. At least I know how that's supposed to work and have some references to turn to. If the docs are hidden somewhere on sourceforge or if there is a .org or .com site I missed in my search I'd be delighted to be wrong. If so, a URL would be nice.
