I'm having a problem with KDE's VNC server under FreeBSD.

I can connect to one machine that is running KDE and set to allow
uninvited guests, but when I disconnect from that machine the VNC server
(krfb) crashes with the following message.
The Application unknown (krfb) crashed and caused the signal 11
(SIGSEGV).
My guesses:
1. Bad memory?
2. VNC sucks. Try tightVNC, I've had the best luck with that. Sometimes 
on some computers I have to muck with the compression setting.. but for 
the most part it works well. Come to think of it, VNC doesn't really 
suck, but its pretty hard on bad hardware ;)  (I seem to remember the 
NIC on that box was found to be flakey).

Hmm, I may try on another computer to see if I get the same results.

It's not VNC itself, this is KDE's implementation of the VNC protocol
(although they may share code).  I can't go to tightVNC, because I need
to control the :0.0 screen.  VNC and tightVNC just create new screens.
