Release Notes

This release was historically part of the Sun Shared Visualization v1.0.x product.

Significant changes relative to 0.3.2:

  1. Added a new preset to all VNC viewers which allows the user to select both the WAN protocol optimizations and perceptually lossless image quality.

  2. Added -list option to vncserver which lists all VNC sessions (not just TurboVNC sessions) running under the current user account on the current host. This new option is documented in the VGL/TVNC docs as well as the TurboVNC man pages.

  3. vncserver will no longer fail if the USER environment variable is unset. That environment variable is unused in the script, so checking for its presence was apparently a vestigial feature.

  4. Modified Windows build to embed a proper version number in TurboVNC.exe.

  5. Changed the fallback logic in the default /.vnc/xstartup file so that GNOME is used as the window manager on Solaris if it is available and if ~/.dt/sessions/lastsession doesn't exist. Otherwise, CDE is used.

  6. Fixed an issue whereby GNOME would fail to start in TurboVNC if TurboVNC was launched from within another X session.
