vnc freezes when monitor turned off and on

Hi,

i have some issues with the vnc viewer or vmware-player/console.

Always, when the Monitor turns of by it self or by me pushing it, the Viewer freezes. But the connection stays online, when i change to console or an other xscreen (strg+alt+Fx) and go back to the screen with vnc it works again, without making a new connection. Same issue i have with the VMware-Player. It must have something to do with X

any ideas?

edit:

I think its because of the DVI Monitor telling the Xserver that its off, and X does some odd things like reinitialising that the RFB protocol has problems with.

So do you know a way to tell X it schouldnt care if the Monitor is turned on or off?



Im using debian 6 netinstall with basic X vnc4viewer

NAME
vmsync - vmware kernel module SYNOPSIS
modprobe vmsync DESCRIPTION
This is a Linux kernel module. It isn't backed by a virtual hardware device, so it must be loaded manually. It is depended on by vmware-guestd(8), so ideally it should be loaded prior to starting vmware-guestd(8) (though vmware-guestd(8) can function without it). This module is used for freezing and thawing the filesystem. OPTIONS
vmsync has no options. SEE ALSO
vmware-checkvm(1) vmware-hgfsclient(1) vmware-toolbox(1) vmware-toolbox-cmd(1) vmware-user(1) vmware-xferlogs(1) libguestlib(3) libvmtools(3) vmware-guestd(8) vmware-hgfsmounter(8) vmware-user-suid-wrapper(8) vmblock(9) vmci(9) vmhgfs(9) vmmemctl(9) vmsock(9) vmxnet(9) vmxnet3(9) HOMEPAGE
