Comment 6 for bug 373834

I have probilly the same problem. I can make connection and can see the desktop. The mouse moves on de desktopsreen but the screen don't refresh. It accepts de commands from the mouse and the keyboard. When i close the viewer and start it up again the screen has changed. I am new and don't have experience with ubuntu. For me the following solution works. I only have the problem when i boot up the ubuntu machine without a monitor. When i connect a monitor VNC works well. I now boot with a standard monitor and after booting i disconnect the monitor. I think for a lot op people this can be a solution. I use ubuntu 9 and on the viewer XP pro with real VNC
