The "VNC Viewer Connection" dialog will appear. Enter the +hostname or IP address of the computer you would like to connect to in the +"Host Name" field. In the "Display Number" field, enter the number of the +display you would like to connect to. If you are connecting to a Windows or +Mac OS server, you typically select display 0. Unix servers typically use +display 1 or higher. You must also enter the password for the server you +would like to connect to if it requires one. If you are having difficulties +entering the password, you can select "Show Password" to show the password +you are entering. You must also add a descriptive name for the bookmark if +you would like it to be saved. You can then either select the OK button to +save the bookmark and connect to the server, or the cancel button to return +to the bookmark list. +</para> +</section> +<section><title>Connecting to a bookmarked server</title> +<para> +To connect to a server that has already been bookmarked, select the bookmark +from the list and press the "Open" icon on the toolbar.

You can also choose to restrict your connection to 8 bit +color, which is much faster than using the color depth of the remote server +at the cost of image quality. Requesting a shared session tells the RFB server +that you are willing to let other users connect at the same time. You can use +the scaling factor on fit more of the remote screen into the space available on +your PDA, if you are willing to accept the performance hit involved in the +scaling. +</para> +<para> +The Encodings tab allows you to select which of the supported encodings you would +would like the VNC Viewer to use to communicate with the remote server. In most +cases you don't need to modify anything on this tab. +</para> +</chapter> + diff --git a/docs/usermanual/usermanual.sgm b/docs/usermanual/usermanual.sgm index 960e426..2fdeb30 100644 --- a/docs/usermanual/usermanual.sgm +++ b/docs/usermanual/usermanual.sgm @@ -13,4 +13,5 @@ <!ENTITY today SYSTEM "today.sgm"> <!ENTITY irda SYSTEM "irda.sgm"> +<!ENTITY keypebble SYSTEM "keypebble.sgm"> ]> <book><title>Opie User Manual</title> @@ -31,4 +32,5 @@ &filemanager; &embeddedkonsole; +&keypebble; </part> <part><title>Settings</title> |
