Not sure when it stopped working, since don't use it often.
Had noticed that start of connections it was listing F8^M key??
Was trying to use it when connected to a windows machine, and nothing
happens. Then tried it on one of my other Fedora machines, and from a
terminal window it puts out a ~ each time the key was pressed, but no menu.
Connected to the same machines using a windows machine with tightvnc's
vncviewer, and the F8 key works perfectly.
I'v seen a similar problem with something in the past, where the files where
using the DOS CR/LF instead of the linux LF. In that case, just used the
dos2unix on source code and rebuilt.
This is a Fedora 30 machine fully updated.
The man and help for vncviewer doesn't appear to show any contact
addresses.
Did note that the default file in the .vnc directory was in DOS format, but
running dos2unix on it made no difference.
Note sure where to report this. Currently have to reboot machine into old
Windows 7 OS that was originally on notebook to use the F8 key..
Thanks.
