TigerVNC 1.4.0 is now available. Lots of changes have been made since
the last release, but the highlights are:

  • Colour map (aka indexed, palette) mode is largely removed. TigerVNC is still compatible with other VNC implementations, but you can no longer run Xvnc in colour map mode.
  • Improvements to the keyboard handling both on the server and client
  • Support for newer Xorg versions in the server build
  • x0vncserver now supports XDamage for instant updates, making it slightly less useless
  • WinVNC now works in service mode on newer Windows versions
  • Better full screen mode for the Java client on OS X
  • man pages should now be up to date
  • Improved TLS implementation in the Java client
  • Lots and lots of cleanups and bug fixes

Server IPv6 support was included in the beta but was unfortunately removed for the release as it required a bit more polish.

Binaries are available from SourceForge:
