Bug Description

Wish:

It would be especially good if xvnc4viewer would provide a GUI feedback if the connection fails, and/or show a connecting dialog while trying to connect. As it stands now, the user waits for the login dialog that never comes up, and only a pgrep can tell that it failed.

Work-around:

xvnc4viewer someserver:0 || zenity --error "VNC Connection failed to someserver"

Version: 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu7
