Hi there,

I find it a bit strange that when I try to execute vncviewer from the command line (xterm within OpenBox) I always get the usage help of the viewer, no matter if I try with or without arguments, and with any combination of arguments (server, server:0, server:1, server port).

However, if I execute it from the menu, I get a graphical window that allows me to connect and tweak options, etc..

My menu entry is:
Code:

                        <item label="vncviewer"> <action name="Execute">
                                <execute>vncviewer</execute>
                        </action> </item>


so I really don't get it. I looked around and nobody seems to have reported this anywhere, so am wondering if it could be an easy thing that I can fix, since this started happening a few months ago. It isn't critical, of course, I just prefer running certain things from the command line.

Thanks!
