vncviewer

[thefool808]

I am having trouble with the java vncviewer plugin. I'm running Ubuntu Hardy with Firefox 3.0 and sun-java6-plugin.

This is for a KVM VM (running windows 2000)

If I go to the monitor link on the VM page of the web interface, It shows me a qemu prompt. If I then click the 'new window' link it opens up a new window and nothing happens. The new window url is ->

https://pve_hostname/openvz/console-direct.htm?cid=0&veid=101

I can get it to work if I open

https://pve_hostname/qemu/vnc-direct.htm?cid=0&veid=101

Then, it mostly works fine, but the page won't open to the correct size so some of the VM's screen is chopped (only a little). Another very strange thing is that the window slowly moves down to the bottom of my desktop and then slowly moves to the left (it's kinda funny to watch). These problems are probably just related to the Java Applet...

Anyways... I'll look into if fixing the 'new window' link in the web interface helps. Also, is there a way to just use vncviewer or similar to access my VMs. I see the "/usr/bin/perl -w /usr/sbin/qm vncproxy 101 mXuS6otc3PAcnS0epqlwiuswb9g" process... I guess I just don't understand the ticket part enough...

Thanks!

I just updated the ubuntu 8.04 (32-bit) installation on my notebook (lenovo r61 with NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M) to the newest software, enabled desktop effects and everythings works now. seem that they fixed a lot.

I am using the nvidia driver, firefox 3, sun-java6-plugin.

The desktop effects was causing the vnc window to move around. I think updates to firefox help it open to the correct size. Thanks.
