VNC viewer ignores -truecolor

[Fred Ma <fm...@do...>]

Hello,

I am using TightVNC connect from sunbox to
sunbox.  The remote VNC server is 24-bit
true color, while the local machine's
display has 6 visuals, one of which is
24-bit true color.  When I try to start
the vncviewer with -truecolor, it always
says that it is using 8-bit pseudocolor.
I confirm this on the VNC server side by
viewing the log.  Why does the viewer
ignore the option for true color?  The
reaons why I know that the 24-bit true
color is valid is by xdpyinfo.

Thanks.

Fred
