Bug Description

When connected to Ubuntu remote host machine (oneiric 11.10) from Ubuntu client machine (natty 11.04) over lan, the client machine receives no (or very few) screen updates, leaving the user blind as to what is transpiring on the host machine. Observing the screen of the host machine, it is apparent that all mouse and keyboard input is being acted upon by/at the host, but the client machine does not receive screen refreshes for the user to see what is happening.

I am running vinagre 2.30.3-1ubuntu2 on the client machine.

I see this reported in the user forums; however, I do not see an active bug report on this.

Remmina shows the same effect, but to a lesser extent. KRDC shows the exact same behavior as does vinagre. Accordingly, if this should be reported elsewhere, please advise.
