A beta of TigerVNC 1.11.0 is now available. Lots of changes have been made since the last release, but the highlights are:

  • vncserver has gotten a major redesign to be compatible with modern distributions
  • The native viewer now has touch gestures to handle certain mouse actions (e.g. scroll wheel)
  • Middle mouse button emulation in the native viewer, for devices with only two mouse buttons
  • The Java viewer now supports Java 9+, but also now requires Java 8+
  • Support for alpha cursors in the Java viewer (a feature already supported in the native viewer)
  • The password and username can now be specified via the environment for the native viewer
  • Support for building Xvnc/libvnc.so with Xorg 1.20.7+ and deprecate support for Xorg older than 1.16
  • The Windows server (WinVNC) is now packaged separately as it is unmaintained and buggy

Binaries are available from SourceForge:
