I installed this same RPM and am having a problem getting the server
to run at all. I have tried running 'vncserver' both as root and as
my regular user account. In each case I get a log that looks like
this:
-----

I tried downloading and compiling the source from att labs, but that
craps out too.
A linux guru froend offered the following observation before he had
to leave for the day: "this version runs *the* initrc file for your
system (which non-root users can't do)"
I'm not 100% sure what that means, but I get the same log whether I
run as "me" or as root. Is there a TerraSoft-sanctioned RPM of VNC
for YDL 2.1 I can snarf from somewhere?
