Unix & Linux Asked on December 21, 2021
I’m running Linux Mint 18 with x11vnc
and the Nvidia drivers. My system is configured for one large desktop which spans 3 monitors (it was the default configuration).
When I create a VNC session using VNC Viewer (Mac) I receive the large extended desktop, creating a very slow refresh rate. Is there a way to attach just one display? How would I reconfigure the Nvidia driver and x11vnc
to do this?
From the Manual, it seems, the option -clip
would seem to do what you want:
-clip WxH+X+Y
Only show the sub-region of the full display that corresponds to the rectangle
geometry with size WxH and offset +X+Y. The VNC display has size WxH (i.e. smaller
than the full display). This also works for -id/-sid mode where the offset is
relative to the upper left corner of the selected window. An example use of this
option would be to split a large (e.g. Xinerama) display into two parts to be
accessed via separate viewers by running a separate x11vnc on each part.
Use '-clip xinerama0' to clip to the first xinerama sub-screen (if xinerama is
active). xinerama1 for the 2nd sub-screen, etc. This way you don't need to figure
out the WxH+X+Y of the desired xinerama sub-screen. screens are sorted in increasing
distance from the (0,0) origin (I.e. not the Xserver's order).
