Sounds like the problem is not the viewer, but the server. That description
typically means you don't have a window manager running. Not being familiar
with Debian or how it starts VNC, I can only say that RedHat/Fedora have the
following script in ~/.vnc:
#!/bin/sh
# Red Hat Linux VNC session startup script
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
That executes your default / preferred window manager and gives you your
desktop. See if Debian doesn't have something similar.

Subject: Problems with OSX/Debian
Hello,
I am having problems connecting to Xvnc from Mac OS X. I am running
vncserver on a debian box. When I try to connect with VNCThing or
VNCViewer the desktop that pops up is just a gray box. With the X
cursor.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
