On Intrepid (8.10) I've been using vnc4server and asked for a "gnome-session &" in the xstartup file. Gnome didn't start. I then tried "startfluxbox &" (a different window manager) and that one worked, but I couldn't start emacs due to rgb.txt missing. I now added rgb.txt as described above and gnome-session seems to start OK. So, I second adding rgb.txt to /etc/X11 even in Intrepid.

Timo, you mentioned "Use a better vnc server, vnc4server is obsolete in itself since no one maintains it and it doesn't build anymore.", which begs the question: Which vncserver should we be using? Thanks for any answer you can provide.
