I took some time today, and thanks to Tim Waugh and Dave Love got VNC 4.0b3 to build on my RHL 9 machine. This is using gcc 3.2.2 and XFree86 4.3.0 (sources from the XFree86-4.3.0.tar.gz file included in XFree86-4.3.0-2.src.rpm from Red Hat).
I've just tested Xvnc using it basically as a replacement for the VNC from Red Hat (ie. on it's own display, not display :0). I can get Gnome to work, if I set "-depth 8". Using the default 16, I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] vnc-4.0b3-unixsrc]$ cat /home/whooper/.vnc/Test\:1.log Xvnc version 4.0b3 - built Jul 31 2003 13:43:29 Underlying X server release 40300000, The XFree86 Project, Inc Thu Jul 31 14:57:40 2003 vncext: VNC extension running! vncext: Listening for VNC connections on port 5901 vncext: Listening for HTTP connections on port 5801 vncext: created VNC server for screen 0 _IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.ICE-unix should be set to root SESSION_MANAGER=local/Test:/tmp/.ICE-unix/10734 The program 'gnome-session' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'. (Details: serial 104 error_code 2 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] vnc-4.0b3-unixsrc]$ I don't think this is a Gnome error, because I also get an error if I just try to run an xterm.

Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot? -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
