Rex,

I'm afraid I don't understand:  You have described problems building the
vnc.so module against XFree86 and Xorg, and yet you are also complaining
that we haven't made the source code available!  If we haven't made the
source code (which you can get from
http://www.realvnc.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi?product=free4/src/win) available
to you, what is it exactly that you are trying to build?

Please find your inconsistent emails included below, for clarity.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
