Hi Jurgen

Thanks for informing about this issue. I was not even aware of it
as the bug was re-assigned to vnc4server package and when bugs
are re-assigned the new package maintainer is not informed automatically.

vnc4 is a very old piece of code dating from Xfree86 version 4 days.
Many years has passed since then and new functionality has been introduced
in X since then. I guess the rendering modes that KDE requires is one of
them.

The obvious solution would be to build vnc against the latest version
of X, but unfortunatly it does not work. I have worked many days on trying
to solve that but it is simply not possible.

One of the main reasons for this is that this package is not maintained
upstream anymore. Since quite many years back. In order to solve this
I would essentially need to re-write most of vnc in order to make it work
with some later X version and that is simply too much work.

Luckily for you there are some good forks of vnc that should be newer.
I guess tigervnc is a version that would work. This version is not
a part of Debian but there are packages available at TigerVNC
homepage.

Please let me know if this helps.
