[Bug 1381483] [NEW] Desktop sharing display frozen

 

Public bug reported:

I can connect to a 14.10 desktop, but the update of the display is
frozen in the VNC client. I see the desktop, with launcher and panel,
but the time is stuck. Clicking on an app in the launcher does start the
app, but the app does not appear on the VNC client screen. This happens
when logging in using either Remmina on Ubuntu 14.04 on UltraVNC from a
Windows 8.1 PC. Someone reported in the forums that this also happens
when using x11vnc.
