Hi All, Just wanted to answer my own question for the sake of others in the same situation.
Situation: Mandrake 8.1 (running Xft), Evolution 1.0.8, VNC 3.3.3 (server) VNC 3.3.2 (client). Symptom: Titlebar/menu fonts appear as boxes, editing window did not appear at all for new mail. Hint: When changing the fontpath in vncserver to /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts/misc/, could get evolution running (albeit in an amazingly ugly fashion), but still couldn't edit outgoing mail. Solution: Upgrade to vnc 3.3.4 on both client and server solved the editing window not appearing. Instead of looking at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config-4.eg (which specified a font path of unix/:7101), look at the actual configuration file for X Windows /etc/X11/XF86Config, which specified unix/:7100 for windows. Ah, the value of 20/20 hind sight. Hope this helps someone else. -Ken _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
