When I change to 16bits works perfect. I went through the complete vncserver script commenting out every line of the Xtightvnc command until the server started. The "-depth 32" option leads to this error. Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex, latest updates & backports installed. ** Affects: tightvnc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- tightvncserver crashes when starting with 32bit depth https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304446 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
