Re: Mouse control problem on Macintosh

0 comments
To improve my feedback in typing & VNC updates, I charged to the 8 bit
color mode, and that speed things up for me locally. Also, if you are on
the same network, like sitting downstairs and VNC'ed to your Mac
upstairs, you can use the "RAW" mode and just connect to VNC without the
SSH tunnel.

Not the most perfect of solutions but workable for me. I use iSSH as an
SSH app more than a VNC client, but I love the ability it gives me. Best
App purchase EVER!
