Package: vnc4server
Version: 4.1.1+X4.3.0-35
Severity: important

Some applications, when run in vnc4server, die shortly after starting the 
application.
This happens when I click on something, press a command hotkey, or otherwise 
interact
with the GUI, but not necessarily the first interaction.

Here is an example error message:

The program 'icedove-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 7730 error_code 2 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

This error is from icedove 3.0.1-2 from experimental.

I'm seeing the same problem with google-chrome-beta (upstream pkg).

I'm not seeing this problem when I run these applications in a different
vnc server, x11vnc, nor when the applications are run on a desktop
without vnc.

I also tested tightvncserver last week and it had the same issue.  I'm
not filing a separate bug yet until it is determined whether it's vnc
that's at fault, or the applications, or some common component of
either.
