Connecting from a Fedora 15 machine to a Fedora 15 machine, both running KDE, the remote machine running krfb
and running krdc
on the local machine, I connect to the remote machine over an ssh tunnel for port 5900. The remote user is prompted to allow access, then I am prompted to enter a password, and then I see their desktop... but with a slant.
Essentially, the desktop appears as if the width is off by one or something.
What may be wrong here? How can I get the desktop to display correctly?
Edit: Changing the connection from 'low bandwidth' to 'medium bandwidth' corrected the problem. So the question becomes "How can I get the desktop to display correctly with the low-bandwidth setting?"
Can you include a picture (perhaps from a digital camera?) of what you mean by "with a slant"? – Flimzy – 2011-10-27T08:54:25.107
Try an alternative VNC implementation. Install

on the remote machine, then tunnel into it. For me, KRDC works fine at any resolution and colour depth.
