x11vnc freezes when moving window? *newb*

[matthewacbroad]

Hey everyone 👋switched to linux full-time few months back. Both machines in this example are running Linux mint.

X11vnc server: LM 22 mate with effects disabled (dual-core, 4gb ram) 1366x768
Client side is LM 22 Gnome with effects disabled (8 core, 32gb ram, 3050ti etc) 1920x1080

Ended up recording a video, it gets stuck in window move forcing me to walk to my server, completing the move or unclicking it.

EDIT: because of the newb using linux mint my goto has been chatgpt with myself

With the knowlege I know and the help with chatgpt, x11vnc startups .sh file from startup applications preferences. inside the sh file:

#!/bin/bash

# Function to start x11vnc
start_x11vnc() {
    x11vnc -forever -usepw -gui tray= &
    X11VNC_PID=$!
    echo "x11vnc started with PID $X11VNC_PID"
}

# Function to stop x11vnc
stop_x11vnc() {
    if [ -n "$X11VNC_PID" ] && ps -p $X11VNC_PID > /dev/null; then
        echo "Stopping x11vnc with PID $X11VNC_PID"
        kill $X11VNC_PID
        wait $X11VNC_PID 2>/dev/null
        echo "x11vnc stopped"
    else
        echo "x11vnc is not running or PID is not set"
    fi
}

# Start x11vnc again
start_x11vnc

echo "x11vnc has been restarted."
