Public bug reported:
This used to work under edgy. I believe it stopped working when I
upgraded xserver-xorg-core. My ~/.vnc/xstartup contains just:
/usr/bin/startxfce4 &
I start vnc with:
vnc4server -fp /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/ -depth 24 -geometry 1280x1024
(the -fp line is because of the bug reported in bugs 3593, 75451, and
71598).
The following is logged to the logfile:
The program 'xfce4-session' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
(Details: serial 74 error_code 1 request_code 146 minor_code 2)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Agent pid 16789 killed
Xfce doesn't start, and you just get the nice grey background.
