I have never had a problem with either one. Thougt to be honest, I
guess I've never checked to the box performance while using them.<br>
<br>
What video-card /drivers are you uising, and have you explored the
possibility that this may be related to an issue with your software to
kernel to card communication?<br>
<br>
I've done a bit of searching on the issue, but nothing really sticks
out and points to a flaw with neither rdesktop nor *vnc.<br>
