which machine is running the server, and which machine is running the client?
your message seems abit ambiguous, so i'll assume you're running the server on Mandrake and the client is on Windoze. if you get a blank (black?) screen, it may be that X is started, but without initialising any window managers. vncserver is actually a script in /usr/X11R6/bin which eventually calls /etc/X11/Xsession you can try tracing thru the scripts and see if you can see anything that needs correction. are you using Mandrake specific rpms? i'm using tightvnc-1.2.4-1mdk and tightvnc-server-1.2.4-1mdk with Mandrake 8.2 and they worked out of the box, so you can try those if u're not already using them.
