Please accept my apologies for raising it here but I couldn't find help anywhere else online.\r\n\r\n* Client OS: Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit\r\n* Remmina: 1.2.0-rcgit.11 (git n/a) - installed from PPA \r\n* Desktop environment: Unity\r\n* Connecting to: Windows 8.1 Basic\r\n* Connecting via: VNC (tightVNC Server 2.7.10 & DFmirage driver 2.0.301): \r\n\r\nI installed Remmina 1.2.0-rcgit.11 (git n/a) remote desktop client on Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit, to connect to a Windows 8.1 Basic machine running tightVNC Server 2.7.10 . When I first connected, the display of the Windows machine on Ubuntu was very smooth (just a little delayed - I had the two machines next to each other and could see the delay).\r\n\r\nAfter a while mucking around with other things, removing the screen from the Windows machine, and rebooting both machines a few times the quality of the Windows display on Ubuntu had changed - there was an obvious redraw of the screen approximately once or twice every second. The whole display is blacked out then redraws from the top down in large blocks. This makes it very hard to view and interact with the displayed remote screen.\r\n\r\nI presume I must have changed some setting in Remmina, and have looked at all the settings but can't work out what the problem is. Any suggestions for what to look at would be greatly appreciated.\r\n\r\nThanks\r\n\r\nRoss"}}
