Keith,

It's possible that the problems you are seeing occur because RedHat include
support for the RENDER extension in their builds, which the current VNC
Server for Unix release doesn't, at present - Cadence may simply be showing
up an update issue with their RENDER hooks.

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
