hi out there,
i am struggling with getting VNC with RemoteFrameBuffer working.

1st problem (Blank RFBViewer Window after succesful connection):

a) i installed squeak3.8 on different machines and operating systems 
(Mac os x, Windows).
b) i fired up a RemoteFrameBufferServer with : RFBServer start.
c) i try to connect a client RFBViewer to the Machine.
d) connection goes well.
e) i have a blank RFBViewer window but i can see the movements of the  
cursor in the Window of the server but not on the client.

2nd problem (can`t get the RFBServer running on Debian Gnu Linux):

a) i installed squeak on a debian server with apt-get.
b) then i saved an image on the mac os x with squeak 3.8 and a  
running RemoteFrameBufferServer.
c) copied the *.image and *.changes file to the server.
d) started the image with :~$ squeak -verbose -headless -nosound - 
image Squeak3_8_Seaside.image on the debian server.
e) recognize no RFBServer is running with nmap. and so i can`t  
connect to it with RFBViewer.

i am very grateful for any help!

best
martin
