RGB:
Your RGB database is in /usr/openwin/lib, not bin. (Actually, there are
probably links in lib to /usr/openwin/lib/X11.) The RGB database is a data
file, not a program, so in every installation it will be in 'lib' or
'lib/X11'.
Can't open display:
Is the server still there; i.e. can you connect to it with the viewer?
If so, did you disable the Unix domain connections to get around the problem
described in FAQ #12? If so, you must use 'DISPLAY=myhost:2', not
'DISPLAY=:2' in your ~/.vnc/xstartup. (DISPLAY=:2 uses the file
/tmp/.X11-unix/X2, which, by default, requires root privilege to create.)
['myhost' is, of course, your hostname.]
According to Dale Westby:

to
