Q-52: The x11vnc -norepeat mode is in effect, but I still get repeated

Are you using x11vnc to log in to an X session? (as described
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[161]this FAQ) If so, x11vnc is starting before your session, and then
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
your session startup could be resetting the autorepeat to be on. Or it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
could be something inside your desktop that decides to turn it back
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on. x11vnc in -norepeat mode will not battle with things turning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
autorepeat back on. (It will, however, turn it off whenever it goes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from a state of zero clients to one client).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Under these circumstances you will have to manually turn autorepeating
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
off by typing "xset r off" or "x11vnc -R norepeat" or a desktop
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
utility. If something in your desktop is automatically turning it back
|
|
|

on you will have to disable that somehow.
