uvnc server 1.8.2 do not work in virtualbox windows guest

Post by adamhj »

yersterday i set up a virtual machine with virtualbox 3.2.6-63112, host and guest system are both windows 2003 sp2 x32. then i installed uvnc 1.8.2(as remote server) in the guest system, and i found that there is something odd: after i changed uvnc server settings and click ok, it take some seconds before the windows execute as dialog popup(some few seconds longer than any uvnc server i ever installed on normal machines). then i tried to connect to the guest system with uvnc viewer from a remote machine, the password dialog popup with no problem, but after i enter the password and click ok, it take some seconds before the remote control window appear(again i feels much longer then normal condition), and the windows is black for another few seconds(abnormal), finally the remote image shows up, but i found that i can't control it at all, neither my mouse nor my keyboard works.

i made some tries to fix this problem, including install/uninstall virtualbox guest addon(works as graphics card and mouse driver), install/uninstall ultravnc video driver, none of these works. at last i made a try with uvnc old version(1.0.2), wow it works ! so i think this is maybe some compatibility problem between vbox windows guest and uvnc 1.8.2, if you have time, please have a look at it.

Try 1.0.8.0 too. It seems to be better than 1.0.8.2 in many respects.
