After some searching around I issued this command which uses a 'tight' encoding;
Code:
vncviewer -encodings 'tight' localhost:5900
Another option is which uses 'copyrect tight hextile' which is 3 encodings plus an 8 bit colour scheme;
Code:
vncviewer -bgr233 -encodings 'copyrect tight hextile' localhost:5900
There are more options;
Code:
vncviewer -help
