Package: vnc4server Version: 4.1.1+X4.3.0-37 Severity: grave File: /usr/bin/vnc4server Justification: renders package unusable
I cannot start the vncserver.
If I execute "vncserver" at the command line the message says that the server
has started but the log file reports an error. I cannot connect to the server
and the process has exited.
I tried with and without my ~/.vnc/xstartup file. I created such a file for
vncserver on other hosts, this is the first time I've used vncserver on this
host.
The logfile's contents are:

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
xsetroot: unable to open display 'paper:1'
vncconfig: unable to open display "paper:1"
Option "--login" is no longer supported in this version of gnome-terminal;
you might want to create a profile with the desired setting, and use the new
'--profile' option
Window manager error: Unable to open X display paper:1
Failed to parse arguments: Cannot open display:
Those font paths don't exist on my system, my fonts seem to be in
/usr/share/fonts.
The system's hostname is 'paper'.
This logfile was generated when using no ~/.vnc/xstartup file, that is the
vncserver placed its default file there.
Thanks.
