When I run x11vnc on display 0 and attempt to connect to it using "Screen Sharing.app" on OSX, the connection always dies after 10 seconds. "Screen Sharing" is activated by running Finder > Menu > Go > Connect to Server... > "vnc://ipaddress"
I can connect fine from OSX using "Chicken of the VNC" client. I have attached the output of running x11vnc and connecting with "Screen Sharing.app".
