The problem is explained in http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/faq.html
#faq-24bpp
xvnc4viewer crashes when the client display is configured at 24 bpp.
A workaround for users is to use another color mode, e.g. X_COLOR_DEPTH=16 if
using LTSP.
For KVM guests, -vga vmware could also be used.
A workaround for the epoptes package could be to use ssvncviewer on
24bpp color modes, but of course the real solution would be for
xvnc4viewer to get fixed.
** Summary changed:
- Demo mode crashes with "couldn't find suitable pixmap format"

** Also affects: vnc4 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
