Your colourmap is full; vncviewer is unable to allocate the colours it needs. 
You can fix this by:
  1) Closing other applications. Check for a running vncviewer; web browsers
     (such as Netscape) often allocate many colours too.
  2) Use a private colourmap (will cause funky colours in other apps when
        you're in vncviewer, and in vncviewer when you're in other apps, though):
     vncviewer -owncmap
  3) Reconfigure your X server to TrueColour, if possible.
