There is version of the VNC viewer with much improved colour support on
my web site. I did the work on 0.88 final so it may need tweaking for
0.89pre7. I am currently occupied with a uClinux kernel port so further
VNC development is on hold. I hope to get back to it eventually but if
anyone else wants to pick it up in the meantime, please go ahead.
Look for nx-vnc332-250800.tar.gz at:
