"James Weatherall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/04/2004 01:24 PM To Ernest E Jessee/Raleigh/[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject RE: eclipse problem Ernest, You should contact RedHat regarding the Xvnc process crashing - they will almost certainly have applied patches to Xvnc rather than simply providing the standard VNC binaries. As has already been suggested, closing the vncconfig clipboard helper (or unticking the clipboard management options) may help, and will at least help diagnose whether this a clipboard issue. The problem described by Bill involves Xvnc closing the viewer connection, but not actually crashing, I believe.
