VNC delay after 60 seconds
Posted: 29 Jan 2024, 10:26
Hello!
We are currently testing the Porteus Kiosk in order to possibly use it for our web-based visualizations.
Everything works fine so far. However, we have a problem with the VNC service.
The image is displayed and the connection is stable. We can see this because there is a clock with a seconds display in the top corner. But as soon as there is no input for exactly 60 seconds, the connection becomes slow and the time only updates every 4-8 seconds. As soon as you move the mouse again, the time changes every second.
Why does the connection become so slow exactly after a minute? This is very unfavorable if you need the image to observe processes where input is not made permanently.
If we look at the visualization directly in the Porteus console we don't have this delay. So it must be due to the VNC connection to Porteus. We tested different VNC viewers, all with the same result.
