-- no debconf information

Connecting from a 32 bit machine with Remmina or with xtightvncviewer to this 
machine (amd64 architecture) does not work.

However, when, before creation of the .vnc dir of the local user,

in the script /usr/bin/tightvncserver, Line 77:

       "/etc/X11/Xsession\n");

is replaced with:

       "gnome-terminal\n");

it connects, the Gnome Terminal appears, and at least some applications work.

The bug is only in Squeeze in amd64 architecture (maybe some others). 
It is not in i386 architecture - connecting from the 64 bit machine to the 
tightvncserver on the machine with the i386 architecture works fine.
