=== Vinagre Remote Desktop Viewer ====== VNC Remote Desktop Viewer ===VINAGRE - *** 3 star I used to recommend Vinagre however Vinagre is neglected by its developers and has some problems.  Lately I have found Vinagre to become very sluggish while I am trying to operate a remote linux system that uses x11vnc server.REMMINA - **** 4 starThe [[Remmina]] VNC client is a good alternative to vinagre and works well with remote linux systems utilizing x11nvc server.  It supports screen scaling, compression, and dynamic resolution.  There are times where Remmina will not connect to certain other VNC servers (poorly written ones) and I have to go back to using vinagre or xtightvncviewer.Recently Remmina has removed the VNC client part of the software and made it a "plugin" that has to be manually added.  It still works the same but there is a couple extra steps in the installation.XTIGHTVNCVIEWER - *** 3 starUsing xtightvncviewer has never failed in connected to a remote VNC server of various types in my experience.  However, xtightvncviewer does lack some desired features such as screen scaling.  It is VERY FAST.  If the remote system utilizes a screen resolution at the same as your desktop or greater xtightvncviewer becomes awkward to use.
