Olá, internet! Hoje lancei o Vinagre 2.29.1, com features bem legais:
Conexões Reversas (tipo o modo listener do vncviewer):
Eu quero a ajuda de alguém para documentar esta feature:https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597110
Possibilidade de mudar a profundidade de cores e usar compressão JPEG (com perdas):
E uma mini-toolbar no painel dos marcadores:

Se você quer ser informado sobre novidades assim que elas acontecem, siga-me no twitter ou identica.
A propósito, seria interessante se alguém criasse um repositório PPA (Ubuntu) para o vinagre instável. Se você tá interessado, mande um email pra mim!

Awesome!
Very usefull feature. I manage a lot of remote computers for my company, and it’s always a pain in the where-you-know to reach computers behind a routeur. The reverse VNC mode was a great new feature for us, but it’s only available on windows so far, so we need to have a virtualized Windows XP to connect on some computers. I can’t wait to see this feature on our computers. Many thanks!
By the way, i’m Ok to help for the documentation, providing I can install this new version (I’m on Ubuntu) and see how it works. My english is far from perfect, but I guess someone can fix my spelling once I have written the doc. Also, I have never written any doc for a Linux software, so i need some guidance. It seems I bring more problems than help, but if you still think I can be helpful, don’t hesitate to contact me!
Greeaaat! Awesome man, keep up with the awesomeness.
I think I speak on everyone’s behalf when I say: Thank you very much.
Cool! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for finally adding more compression options. Hopefully this will improve usability with my low bandwidth connections.
Just a few suggestions for the “Remote Desktop Viewer” dialog:
1) The title should say something like “New connection” (or “Connect to…”) rather than “Remote Desktop Viewer”. That’s much more descriptive of what the dialog is for.
2) “Depth color” should be “Color depth”
3) It would be nice if the options below the “Host” entry were hidden away in a gtkExpander. We don’t *always* need to see those options…
Is it possible to set the geometry? Like vncserver -geometry 800×600 does?
RDP! plz
Suggest that “For further information checkout the help” be modified to, “To know more about this feature please read the Help”. The somewhat pedantic correction on “checkout” is based on the colloquial usage of checkout during transactions at retail counters etc.
I am looking forward to using the software. Thanks for all the good work you do.
I am interested in maintaining unstable versions in my PPA. I use Vinagre version from repositories often but not always since it does not have scaling options.
I have a simple problem: when i connect to a remote computer update speed is really low (Finally you developed JPEG compression!!!). Since i cannot see the position of my pointer in the remote view, i have to wait till the screen get refreshed.
Is it possible to have a “not hide local cursor” feature?
@François, I suggest you to visit http://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject
@Onkar, you’ll also need to maintain gtk-vnc in your PPA. Once you get it activated get in touch with me.
@Otaon, I think there’s a bug filled about this… will check
You are da man!!!!
Karmic rocking huh? Very nice pictures.
Has someone created a ppa for vinagre 2.29.1?
Regards.
@tony, I don’t think so
Hello, i’m trying to compile this tool from sources on a kubuntu 9.10
but i can’t get to it, there are so many dependencies to compile that it’s nearly as recompiling the whole gnome desktop,
is there a deb for it? or a guide on how to compile in ubuntu kk?
i’m using this computer for work and i can’t screw up things too much
AFAIK there’s no deb for KK.
It should be easy to build it:
sudo apt-get build-dep vinagre
./configure –prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
i tried to do as you suggested but the following error is returned
checking for VNC… configure: error: Package requirements ( gtk-vnc-1.0 >= 0.3.10 libxml-2.0 >= 2.6.31
) were not met:
Requested ‘gtk-vnc-1.0 >= 0.3.10′ but version of GTK-VNC is 0.3.9
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables VNC_CFLAGS
and VNC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
Yep, 2.29.1 requires gtk-vnc 0.3.10. Just download the tarball, install and then back to vinagre and run configure again.
thnx for your help, i’ve been able to compile it properly
but when i try to connect to a remote host, the program closes itself and returns the following error:
./vinagre: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/vinagre-1/plugins/libvnc.so: undefined symbol: vnc_display_set_depth
do you know what may this problem be caused by?
You’re not using gtk-vnc 0.3.10.
You have to install (make install) both gtk-vnc and vinagre in /usr, otherwise the system library (0.3.9) will be used.
ouuuuuuuuuu ic…
i’ll rebuild it.
well, i’ve compiled it and instelled it in /usr
but the error keeps on appearing…
Fixed, i had to recompile the libs too
i took libgtk-vnc and vinagre from Ubuntu lucid. Works perfekt.
Thanks a lot.
I also installed it from lucid repos and it works fine on karmic as of 12/4/2009
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/vinagre
About the ssh connections, how do I use a different username for the ssh server I am connecting to?
Also, RDP support will be awesome.. visionapp/mremote better be scared.
How critical are the version numbers of the glib-2.0, gtk+-2.0, and gconf-2.0 libraries? i.e. I wanted to build Vinagre for RHEL 5.3 without altering the installed library configuration more than necessary, but wasn’t sure if it would even be worth trying.
Ok, so for those who are using ubuntu KK the easy way is to just download and install these two:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libgtk-vnc-1.0-0
and
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/vinagre
And I think we’re all waiting for rdp support
no pressure lol
“And I think we’re all waiting for rdp support

RDP and better ssh options. For SSH I need to be able to specify username . I dont need the billion and 1 options of putty but here are some biggies.
- Specify Username (and remember it with password)
- Use an RSA key for authentication
- X11 forwarding
- Remote and Local Port forwarding/tunneling
