VNC服务器在开启compiz时不工作　| VNC server won't work with compiz

症状是VNC远程连接后，画面显示一帧就不再刷新了
（但是鼠标键盘在本机好像是有响应的）

以前讨论过这个问题
http://coolwanglu.blogspot.com/2011/01/compizfglrxvnc-problem-of-vnc-server.html

今天再次遇到了，只是现在我的电脑是ATI的卡
vino不太好用，用x11vnc的时候出现消息

29/04/2012 21:14:17 XDAMAGE is not working well... misses: 166/216
29/04/2012 21:14:17 Maybe an OpenGL app like Beryl or Compiz is the problem?
29/04/2012 21:14:17 Use x11vnc -noxdamage or disable the Beryl/Compiz app.
29/04/2012 21:14:17 To disable this check and warning specify -xdamage twice.

用 x11vnc -noxdamage -once -display :0 可以正常使用，但是由于不是增量显示的，网络压力会很大

在
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/772873
看到一个 workaround
是说在ATI Catalyst Control Center (Administrative)里打开 tear free 这个选项

我试了一下，果然管用。
以后不用-noxdamage也能正常使用了

另外-once这个选项太好用了

 The symptom is after a successful vnc connection, the window stopped refreshing after the first frame.
(But the keyboard and mouse seems to be responded on the remote machine)

I've discussed about the problem before:
http://coolwanglu.blogspot.com/2011/01/compizfglrxvnc-problem-of-vnc-server.html

Today I encountered this problem again when I tried to connect to my machine, but now I'm using an ATI graphics card.
vino server is not quite handy, so I used x11vnc, and I saw some useful logs: 


29/04/2012 21:14:17 XDAMAGE is not working well... misses: 166/216
29/04/2012 21:14:17 Maybe an OpenGL app like Beryl or Compiz is the problem?
29/04/2012 21:14:17 Use x11vnc -noxdamage or disable the Beryl/Compiz app.
29/04/2012 21:14:17 To disable this check and warning specify -xdamage twice.

I can access my machine with 'x11vnc -noxdamage -once -display :0' without any problem, but now the screen is no longer updated incrementally, so it would hammer the network.

Then I found a workaround at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/772873

It says to enable the 'tear free' option in the ATI Catalyst Control Center (Administrative)

I tried, and it really worked!
Then it still works without the '-noxdamage' option

BTW, I really like the '-once' option.

A Rocky Migration: Moving from docker-compose to Podman and gVisor

I've been running a few containers for several years. They were all running under rootless Docker with a single user. Initially, I planned to  migrate the containers to VMs , but I couldn't get a stable workflow after about two months of effort. Later,  gVisor caught my attention , and I decided to migrate to Podman with gVisor instead. The new plan is to run each container with  --userns=auto  and use Quadlet for systemd integration. This approach provides better isolation and makes writing firewall rules easier. I'm now close to migrating all my containers. Here are a couple of rough edges I'd like to share. Network Layout I compared  various networking options  and spent a few hours trying the one-interface-per-group approach before giving up. I settled on a single macvlan network and decided to use static IP addresses for my containers. To prevent a randomly assigned IP address from conflicting with a predefined one, I allocated a large IP range for my ...

GameConqueror 0.09 -- Linux Game Hacking Tool

If you are a game hacker If you've been looking for a `CheatEngine for Linux` Then you can't miss this. ============================================== GameConqueror is a game hacking tool for linux, it's written in PyGTK and uses scanmem as its backend. It's supposed to be with most useful features of CheatEngine for Linux. Currently, I've implemented almost everything about scanning, involving variant data types and scan types: Data Types: int{8/16/32/64}, float{32/64}, unknown type(int or float) and unknown width(will try each of them), byte array and string Scan Types: equal, greater, less, changed, unchanged, increased(by), decreased(by) This should be enough for most cases, so I decided to release it at the current status. ============================================= Here's how you can get it PPA (for Ubuntu users) https://launchpad.net/~coolwanglu/+archive/scanmem (I've not test it in 32bit environments or Jaunty, do please inform me if it doe...

Fix Google Security Code

Google Security Code (http://g.co/sc) is one type of 2-step verification. This is particularly useful when security keys and passkeys are not available. I have been using it in my LXC containers, until today I found out that it stopped working. It just kept saying "The code is invalid". It is easy to rule out some factors: The code works on other browsers on my laptop. The code works on other devices that are directly connected to the router. So it appears that Google also checks IP addresses besides the security code. Recently I have IPv6 enabled, so most devices that are directly connected to the router have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. But  I only enabled IPv4 for my LXC containers. So I guess when a code is generated by device A and used by device B, Google should be able to check that device A and device B are closely located. But in my case, IPv6 address appears on device A but not on device B, which may look suspicious. To fix the problem, I just needed to disable IPv...
