Description toddz 2005-11-04 00:22:59 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051025 Firefox/1.5

Description of problem:
Starting x0vncserver at the command line produces the following output:
Thu Nov  3 16:21:12 2005
 main:        XTest extension present - version 2.2
 main:        Listening on port 5900
 main:        select: Invalid argument (22)
~ImageCleanup called

Removing the Fedora vnc-4.1.1-10.1 rpm and installing vnc-4_1_1-1.i386.rpm from RealVNC.com solves the problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 vnc-4.1.1-10.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install the vnc-4.1.1-10.1 rpm (including vnc-server)
2.From the command line run: /usr/bin/x0vncserver
3.
  

Actual Results:  Thu Nov  3 16:21:12 2005
 main:        XTest extension present - version 2.2
 main:        Listening on port 5900
 main:        select: Invalid argument (22)
~ImageCleanup called

Expected Results:  x0vncserver starts listening on 5900 and accepting connections.

Can you attach the output of 'strace x0vncserver'?

Created attachment 121610 [details]
x0vncserver - strace output

This is the output of running:

x0vncserver &> x0vncserver.strace

Please try this test package:

ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/172410

Does that fix the problem?
Comment 4 toddz 2005-12-07 19:24:06 UTC 
Tested vnc-server-4.1.1-10.1.0.0.1.i386.rpm and it seemed to work well - Thanks!

Just for completeness, here is my full test results of client connections
tested.  Only one failure and I think that was a viewer/client issue.

Linux - VNC Viewer Free Edition 4.1.1 - Successful
Mac - Chicken of the VNC 2.0b3 - Failed to Connect; however I think this is a
client issue.
Mac - Chicken of the VNC 2.0b2 - Successful
Mac - VNCViewer - Successful
Windows RealVNC 4.1.1 - Successful
Windows UltraVNC 1.0.1 - Successful

Thanks again Tim!
