vnc4: statusexplanation |

I've isolated the problem a fair bit... xinitrc is run by ~/.vnc/xstartup, which executes `. /etc/X11/Xsession', which in turn seems to cause any process running it to crash, if it's set to connect to a Xvnc session. Running an xterm on it manually works fine, and the Xsession script works fine on a normal X session. I'll work out what it is that's causing the crash, and get it fixed ASAP.
This problem has only appeared now due to vnc4 not having been built in Edgy until now, and not due to the security update changes to the source. The Dapper version of the security update works fine. |

Binary package hint: vnc4server
After the update of vnc4server (vnc4 (4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu1.6.10.1) edgy-security) of today 2006-01-06, vnc4server does not start any longer in desktop environment mode, only the gray screen with the "X" mouse pointer appears. The previous version worked fine in Edgy (with the font patch).
To reproduce:
1) update to latest version of vnc4server
2) modify the ~/.vnc/xstartup file so vnc starts in full desktop mode (uncomment the first two lines)
3) run vncserver
4) if you access through vncviewer, you will see the gray screen, no desktop environment.
