Bug Description
package: vnc4server
release: lucid (10.04 server)
window manager: kde (kubuntu-desktop)
When running:
vnc4server :2
The user gets a gray X-windows server with no window manager running.
A look in the vnc log file captured by vnc4server for the client yields this:

What am I suppose to do to fix this?
Eventually I would like it to run on boot and provide a kdm login screen. But can
you help me fix this basic problem to start?
