I have a case where the exact opposite is true, per bug 68020. In my case, it DOES work under Xorg but DOES -NOT- work under VNC4Server and it's i386 rather than AMD64/EM64T. And I'm running Feisty on all my production Ubuntu machines.
My normal complement I run as a "desktop" on that machine (which is headless) is as follows: --VNC4Server --IceWM (I do not need GNOME, KDE or any heavy GUE, though TWM's entirely too lightweight for my purposes); this is my fileserver, not my desktop --Azureus (I have 2.5.0.0 from Universe for testing purposes; I prefer to use the official version for my actual torrenting) Works under Xorg just fine but dies after presenting splash screen or a few screens during its first run in VNC4Server. And it doesn't matter whether Azureus and VNC4Server is on the same machine or are on two separate machines. The outcome is always the same. I have a similar report on bug #78282 and the solution one user suggested was using TightVNCServer in the meantime. That advice actually worked. I now have Azureus running stably on TightVNC. I would like to at least have VNC4Server as a possible choice. Hope this report helps. --Ian. -- azureus (and others) cannot start main window on amd64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
