Hi, today I experienced an interesting issue: I upgraded from sxce 104 to 113, and after rebooting to the new BE, x11vnc stopped working. Symptoms: I can start x11vnc, can get to the login screen, can login, but after login, the screen gets black (but the pointer is there), and after a few seconds, the vnc session ends, and cde-login is restarted. The following backtrace is there in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (!! - Xorg.0.log shows the current Xorg process's informations)

Server aborting (II) UnloadModule: "kbd" (II) UnloadModule: "mouse" [EOF] Interestingly I experienced no problems when in front of the latter machine. The first one was upgraded remotely, so I could not test it yet, but I'd expect X to function normally when used "locally". I use these systems quite frequently from a remote location, so please, if anyone has an idea what's going on, please be kind to me and share it! :) Thanks, A ps.: I do have all the core files from the first system, and maybe one from the second, if needed! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
