Steve, Some possibilities that spring to mind:
- You are using a video driver module with your X server that is not stable, and it is failing to handle screen grabs as performed by the VNC module properly. - Your network drivers are not stable and are failing to handle VNC-style (bursty) network traffic properly. - There is some sort of incompatibility between the Xorg module interface and the XFree86 4.2.1 module interface that our module is compiled for. Which GNU/Linux distribution are you running?
