#114 Unknown Rectangle Encoding ###### -> exiting

[Gregory P. Moore]

I am having a problem connecting my OSx 10.3.4.1 to Win
XP home. Frequently I get the following error:

"Unknown rectangle encoding ####### -> exiting"

I am using v2.0b2.

This problem occurs during typing of characters but not
point & click. Sometimes it occurs if the screensaver
(showing my picutres) has come on.

Sometimes this problem makes CotVNC literally unusuable
because of repeated need to reconnect, other times it
happens sporadically.

Any help would be appreciated, but I'd still like to
thank you for all your hard work on this project!

This seems to be fixed in CVS for the upcoming Chicken 2.0b3. If you'd
like to pull from CVS, build and test, that'd be great.

I am also impacted by this bug. When will 2.0b3 be released?
Alternatively, how do I compile the Mac OS/X version upon downloading
the cvs source?

This problem is occuring for me both with 2.0b2 and CVS HEAD
when trying to connect to a UltraVNC server.

I am experiencing the same problem connecting to a VNC server on a Linux
box. Not fixed as of the current CVS (7 March 2005). FWIW, I have the
same or similar problem with all VNC viewers I try on MacOS X.

Please disregard my previous post (as nobody, 3 March 2005). I solved this
problem by updating my vnc-server on Fedora Core 3 to version 4.0.8.

Resolved for Chicken 2.0b3.

Using OSx 10.4.4 and CVNC v2.0b3, still same effect as described. Supposedly
fixed in v2.0b3, but I don't find that. I am connecting to a XP VNC host.
