Bug Description
Vino, the built in VNC server in Ubuntu, has had a problem for many releases : if compositing is enabled, it doesn't correctly update the display when connected remotely. The present bug is filed for configurations using the Intel driver.
Other bugs report exactly the same issue but in other graphics configurations :
- Bug #915906 is related to the ATI open source driver,
- Bug #772873 to the fglrx driver. Please refer to it for more information.
The present bug has been observed on Oneiric, on a computer with an i915 chipset, in the following configuration :
