Description

The problem is discussed extensively in this forum thread:

The current situation with BETA.1 and BETA.2 as delivered is:

  • VNC does not work at all

  • Neither with the builtin NoVNC client nor with a 3rd party VNC viewer

With my proposed patch:

  • VNC will fundamentally work

  • It will work perfectly well with a 3rd party viewer

  • With the builtin NoVNC client the RGB colour palette is switched, so colours are distorted

This colour problem is an upstream bug for which I currently don’t have a patch. Still distorted colours are way better than no VNC at all. The fact could be mentioned in the release notes.

 

Patch:

 

Kind regards,
Patrick

Steps to Reproduce

Upgrade existing system to 13.3-BETA.2 or install from scratch. Create VM, try to use the VNC function.

Expected Result

VNC should work. NoVNC in the browser as well as using an external VNC viewer.

Actual Result

VNC screen is displayed but never updates. Screen seems "frozen".
