Description Alexey Eremenko 2008-08-24 10:46:41 UTC 
Hi,

In openSUSE 11.0, our built-in VNC server, "vncserver" from package "tightvnc" doesn't support changing resolution on the fly (xrandr).

"vncserver" requires input parameters to change resolution, and it can only be changed on server startup, not during use.

linux:/mnt/temp1 # xrandr 
Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0".
RandR extension missing

Please provide xrandr extensions for VNC server.

-Technologov, 24.8.2008.

You want RANDR >= 1.2 support in Xvnc? Go ahead, implement it and reopen. In *this* order. Thanks.
