Finally I got the bloody vnc4server working. What Roberto Faroline said
on 2007-04-25 DID WORK. They should at least assign someone to fix it (I
was about to install fedora :-o).
Anyway, this is what I did to make it work:
Modify the file /etc/xinetd.d/Xvnc, by adding at the end of the
server_args line this:
-extension XFIXES
The whole Xvnc file under /etc/xinetd.d should look like this:
service Xvnc
{
type = UNLISTED
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/bin/Xvnc
server_args = -inetd :1 -query localhost -geometry 1280x800 -depth 16 -f
p /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc -DisconnectClients=0 -NeverShared passwordFile=/root
/.vncpasswd -extension XFIXES
port = 5901
}
Take a look at this excelent link:
