New in JollysFastVNC Pro 1.26 (May 18, 2011)

  • Added workaround for buggy vnc server modifier key recognition. There will be a delay sent to the remote side when you use a keyboard modifier ( like shift, ctrl,... ). The default is set to 20 ms for all hosts and 200ms for OSXvnc based servers. You can change the default with the command defaults write de.jinx.JollysFastVNC modifierwaittimems .
  • Added default to enable the use of local keyboard interpretation by default: defaults write de.jinx.JollysFastVNC uselocalkeyboardonstart YES. This is usefull for special keyboard layouts like NEO.
  • Added default to disable qemu USB keyboard support. defaults write de.jinx.JollysFastVNC disableusbkeyboardsupport YES
  • Added workaround for erratic modifier keys.
  • Improved support for OSXvnc Mac vncserver.
  • Added experimental feature - if you are outside the VNC session window with your mouse, local commands are beeing used. Use defaults write de.jinx.JollysFastVNC enablelocalcommandsoutsidevncwindow YES to enable it.
  • Fixed that generic Hostdiscovery was still in use when Bonjour was disabled.
  • Fixed bug with Meta/Ctrl key modifiers for Unix hosts.

New in JollysFastVNC Pro 1.24 (May 6, 2011)

  • Added keyboard and mouse encryption for connections to Mac servers. As soon as you log in via username and password authentication, all keystrokes are encrypted now by default. So in case you have a SSH tunnel set up to connect to a host behind the SSH host you have now encrypted keystrokes. In case you have problems with it you can disable it via a defaults setting disablemackeyboardencryption.
