Hey programmers:

VNC sucks.

Do something about it.

I can only type and use the mouse.

I'd like to use this tablet with all it's wonderful pressure and tilt sensitivity via VNC, but of course that doesn't work. I'm stuck here connected to my home PC and only able to use the keyboard and mouse. I'm getting about 12FPS at medium quality which is fairly good for VNC, but imagine if you could run at whatever the refresh rate was via video compression. As far as I know, every VNC client/server use an image transfer solution, when live compression of video is now possible at high speeds. It'd be nice to use VNC at 60FPS or higher. :)

Become famous. Make the first Wacom friendly VNC server/client.

That is all.

Saying it's moronic is the stupid comment. You can't get accurate feedback when using a wacom tablet unless you're at least above 30-40fps.

I know, because I've tried on my TV. At 60hz it looked fine. Anything below that, I couldn't handle.

If you think you can draw with a tablet over VNC at 5fps, then go ahead.

Why the fuck would you need to use a wacom over VNC?

I've sat back and watched him make a fool out of himself on several other forums here. This was always his haven for retreat. I'm glad folks here are finally seeing him for what he really is. An egotistical, elitist ass. I've yet to see anything of real value from him in any form. He talks a good game but that's about it. I've also seen the same thing from him at a few other forums. All front and little substance.
