Not to be funny and definitely not to start any kind of a gnome vs. KDE
flame war but I don't see VNC behaving like this with gnome. This
includes even having the "screensaver" kick-in after the set inactivity
period on the VNC desktop. I think both systems were running CentOS 4
(gnome, x.org) at the time. Just pointing out that this behavior *may*
be peculiar to VNC interacting with KDE.
Cheers,
