I would just like to add something that i have recently noticed. [Running Jaunty 9.04 with all system updates]

We all know that the screen does not refresh, but now something else is happening.

My compiz effects are always on, and when im at work and want to remote in, i do this:

1-connect, right click on desktop, disconnect
2-select 'change desktop background', disconnect
3-select 'visual effect', disconnect
4-select 'no effects' and away i go.

each time i used to reconnect, the screen would show what i had previously done, therefore i was able to step through each time to turn compiz effects off. Now it doesnt show what i had previously done. i dont know if the button clicks are not working, or if the screen is not refreshing.

Cheers,
Eddie
