I have the latest version of VNC Viewer working like a charm. I have, however, run into two text input-related bugs: - I cannot type any caps via the onscreen keyboard - they are always rendered in lowercase; - Selecting "Paste" from the keyboard input options does not work. I know that neither of these is a problem with my VNC server (OSXvnc), since other VNC viewers do not run into either of these issues.
It's not specifically a CAPS thing. Any character that would require the shift key on a normal keyboard shows up as the un-shifted version. Thus: Shift + "a" shows up on the other system as "a" CAPS + "a" -> "a" Shift + "1" -> "1" "@" -> "2" (Note: "@" does not require the shift key on the virtual keyboard. It still shows up as a "2". Similarly, with "!".) The symbol palette on the virtual keyboard doesn't work. If the symbol in question is a Shifted version of something on a standard keyboard, it shows up as the unshifted version. (e.g., "%" becomes "5".) Otherwise, if it's a Greek letter or the like, nothing happens at all. One can't input capital letters with the handwriting recognition either.
