Re: [Qemu-devel] dad-answers.com patches update

Hi Hetz,

Here comes the VNC README:

In order to apply the patch, just get a current (2004/08/17) CVS copy, cd
to it, and do
        cat /wherever/qemu-rfb6.patch.gz | gzip -d | patch -p1
Now you can use the normal configure && make mantra in order to make the
binary.

To use vnc as a backend, there are two ways: Either you use the command
line option "-vnc" to completely rely on VNC as a front end, or you can
specify "-vnc-and-sdl", in which case you both have an SDL window and can
connect via VNC.

If you use VNC, it is important to specify a keyboard language (as an
example: "-k fr" for a French keyboard). This is the keyboard layout the
VNC client is supposed to have!

To use the mouse, you normally have to calibrate it. It is not my fault:
When sending a relative mouse delta of 5 pixels, Windows and X move 10
pixels! Therefore, if the mouse does not move like your host mouse, you
should move the guest pointer to an empty space on the desktop (with space
above), hit and release Ctrl+Shift. The mouse should be then calibrated.

Ciao,
