Description Colin Macdonald 2006-08-10 20:46:21 UTC
I know that rgb.txt moved to /usr/share/x11/rgb.txt with modular X but I think the server with tightvnc can't find it there:

cbm@aconite ~ $ xsetroot -solid gray
xsetroot:  unknown color "gray"
cbm@aconite ~ $ xsetroot -solid red 
xsetroot:  unknown color "red

Thats running within a vncserver.  Those commands work fine in my Xorg server 7.1:
cbm@aconite ~ $ xsetroot -solid gray
cbm@aconite ~ $

If it matters, my ~/.vnc/xstartup looks like:

xsetroot -gray &
xterm -ls &
xterm -ls &
fspanel &
exec metacity

I'm not sure if the official vnc server also suffers from this as I don't have it emerged, but if I get around to it I'll unmerge tightvnc, emerge vnc and try it.
