Not quite, in the last one, the colors on xmms were screwed up too.

realvnc fixed that.

I'd hope so, that said I've only tried tightvnc and realvnc 3.3.5. Maybe
there are other servers I could try.
Eh, how about this:
I just tried x0rfbserver and connected locally to it on my laptop, which
of course gives a weird effect of displaying the desktop onto itself in
a loop, but I did get to see my xmms fonts fine, which leads me to
believe that maybe the X configuration spawned by vncserver has
something missing and is responsible for the bad display of xmms.
At this point, I'd say that it's not necessarily a bug with how
vncserver transmits the data for the xmms window, but maybe a bug with
the X session that vncserver spawns.

I had the same problems on two different machines, and it worked fine
when I ran x0rfbserver instead.
I'd say that the problem is with the X session from vncserver at this
point.
I'm however not quite sure how to fix it yet.
