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
