Thanks, that's what I thought

But trying to click on the N800 screen only shows a black dot, and doesn't move the mouse or generate a left-click - believe I've tried...

Any ideas of any setup or similar that may be the cause?

Junior - I don't use TightVNC but UltraVNC (and that setup works perfectly with N770 vnc viewer).

There is an option in Ultravnc to disable viewers input. Don't know if tight has the same options, but worth checking that you haven't enabled something similar by accident on your server...

Thanks again. Couldn't really find that option in TighVNC, so I just installed UltraVNC and it seems to work.

So I'm here with an XP box running WinVNC (UltraVNC).
It's hardwired to my router.
My freshly updated N810 is connected wifi to the router.
If I VNC Viewer to the PCs ethernet IP address, all works.
However, if I connect wifi ad-hoc directly to the PC,
VNC Viewer comes back with Can't Connect.
It doesn't get as far as asking for the VNC password.
This does work from a Palm Tungsten C.

WIFIINFO on the N810 doesn't show an IP address in ad-hoc mode,
just shows what look like the mac addresses.

Edit- just got it working.
I'll post anyway for the next guy.
Wifi Info gave me the key.
I needed to specify an IP address in one of the Connections widget submenus.
Connection locks up superfast, and the screen looks great.
This has been just a concept for several years with my Tungsten C.
At last there's a handheld with enough screen to make it work.

I had a tungsten C has a gift. After 1 month of using it and fed up with my daily software resets and poor support from palm, it's now taking dust somewhere in my house.
Anything interesting to do with it? A bit off-topic sorry..

Same as suggested in post #2. I don't know of any apps that run on the N800 but not on the N810.
