Hi Eddie,
    Is there a schedule for integrating one vnc viewer to phosphor webui ? 
Best,
Xiuzhi

OK, I noticed a similar issue on AST2500 when immediately detecting 
resolution after mode change. I added a delay, but it probably needs to 
be longer on AST2400... Also, most client's don't handle server-side 
resize, so usually the window will close and you'll have to re-open 
anyway I think, if the size is changing.

Thanks,
Eddie
