   It looks like vncserver is compiled against older version of xorg1.0.2. If you compile the xvnc against xorg1.2.0, the problem will go away. One stopgap solution is to use only old X programs. I am using twm as window manager, xpdf, xterm, firefox etc as fallback now. My feeling is that new X -programs are using some extensions available only in 1.2.0 or libraries may be incompatible.
