Hi Gilles Now I have been able to tell what this "time has moved forwards" means. It says that the system time has been changed. I assume you do not do that manually so this is likely a bug in vnc. The source was not intended for 64 bit architecture so maybe that is the problem.
Here is someone else that have triggered this... http://blog.chinaunix.net/u2/83656/showart_2067292.html What I think is that there are some time handling code in your system that is behaving strange. It could be a architecture specific problem in the Time.cxx file. Possibly in the addMillis function, but it could also be somewhere else. When you said that it worked well with vncserver, was that vnc4server or was it some other version of vnc installed at the same time that it could have been using?
