In my case, here is what I'm seeing:

Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver -> Xorg X server on a Kubuntu Feisty desktop: Works fine

Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver -> Xorg X server on a Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver: I don't know; I operate that machine headless.

Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver or Kubuntu Feisty dektop -> VNC4Server on either machine: Fails (This is the configuration I want/need since the machine is headless and I'd just as soon keep it that way).

I do most of my torrenting from my fileserver so I can free up my desktops, and since that machine runs headless, I use the VNC X server. Since this configuration does not work and since my fileserver is not a desktop by nature, I have to tell it to connect to another computer over the network to a machine running a normal X server. Then I use x11vnc so I can look at that machine from afar. I would rather have the VNC4 X server and Azureus both run on the fileserver.

All machines involved are i386-class machines (AMD Athlon XP 2100+ on the desk; Duron 1600 on the server), thus they are running the i386 version of (Ku|U)buntu.

And in all cases, the JVM in use is Sun Java 1.6.0-b105 (installed via the "sun-java6-jre" package).

Elsewhere, I'd seen it suggested it might be a version of libxfixes' being "too new" for the X server. I forget where offhand.
