To summarize: There seems to be three general ideas for fixing vnc4server on Ubuntu.
1. -extension XFIXES (an addition to Xvnc execution) 2. Fixing the Font Path 3. Compiling against the newer version of Xorg. ======================= 1. -extension XFIXES (an addition to Xvnc execution) This seems to have fixed getting as far as a login prompt for most. For others the fix has worked much further but mixed results were reported. 2. Fixing the Font Path Wasn't there an issue with the font path? Maybe somebody can check it against the xorg.conf file to see if it is correct. I used to enable the font server and dig into the vncserver script to change it to query a tcp port for fonts. In the LTSP project this used to be an option to specify a font server for the X Servers to connect to. -- vnc4server does not start Desktop environment after security update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78282 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
