Running edgy on sparc arch with latest updates as of the time of this
report.
This is definitely still broken. Part of this is broken in
/etc/vnc.conf. Part of this is that /etc/X11/xorg.conf is broken out of
the box (font paths in edgy's xorg.conf don't exist!)

Xvnc4 (package vnc4server)
On Edgy, I solved the problem by adding the -fp parameter to the
/etc/vnc/config file as follows:
sudo gedit /etc/vnc/config
opens config file for r/w:
# Default vncserver configuration. See the vncserver man page for details.
-PasswordFile $HOME/.vnc/passwd # Location of VncAuth
This is definitely broken again in Edgy. Plus the old Dapper workaround
(-fp ...) broke because the fonts moved from /usr/share/X11/fonts to
/usr/share/fonts/X11.
Just repeating what has already been said, adding my voice to the
chorus. Would be nice to see this fixed in the underlying Xvnc4
On Edgy I have solved with a symbolic link from /usr/share/X11/fonts to
/usr/share/fonts/X11.
I think this workaround is better than the '-fp' one, because in the '-fp'
manner Xvnc knows only about 'misc' sub-directory, and not about the others
(100dpi, 75dpi, Type1 etc.).
However, me too I
i've just found the same problem on Edgy PPC

Confirmed on edgy. Additionally, Bug #34218 appears to be a duplicate
of this.

I confirm this problem on edgy also. I don't know if this is the right
place to do this. If it isn't, please, correct me!

I confirm this is still not solved in edgy, whether with vncserver or
vnc4server.
But the -fp /path/to/font fix works fine, thanks.

Xvnc4 still behaves this way in Edgy.

@Jewel
Thanks, it works fine with your fix but shouldn't it be posted for edgy too?
Otherwise the bug could make it into the final.

Update: It does work if you start it like this:
Xvnc4 -fp /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/ :1
Notice the slight difference in the path from what I tried earlier.
I found this path by running `xset q`. You can manually edit
/usr/bin/vnc4server to add the font path from xset but I don't see
anything
This is happening again in edgy. I've tried setting XFConfigPath in
/etc/vnc.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well as running Xvnc4 :1 -fp
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/.
