Vinagre - remote desktop viewer, control
Contents
configuration
The user preferences and bookmarks are stored in the following directory:
- ~/.local/share/vinagre
help
stuck in full screen
position the mouse cursor in the top center of the screen. Now the "local" mouse cursor should become visible. Once visible, you have keyboard shortcut control of the local desktop not the remote desktop. Now you can alt-tab. If the cursor is not visible in the top center of the screen all control reverts back to the remote desktop.
unable to control remove machine or control very sluggish
there seems to be a problem with some versions of vinagre when control of remove machine via vnc.
Using xtightvncviewer allows full control of remote host, using vinagre there is no control or it is very delayed. This is an incompatibility, currently no suggested resolution.
how do i delete a bookmark?
- navigate to ~/.local/share/vinagre
- edit the vinagre-bookmarks.xml file
cp vinagre-bookmarks.xml vinagre-bookmarks.bak vim vinagre-bookmarks.xml
Once in vim:
Each bookmark entry is seperated by <item></item>
It doesn't seem to hurt anything if you put line breaks in after each </item> to help you discern entries and leave the line breaks in the file when you save.
