Description of problem: If I add 'Load "vnc"' to the Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): synaptics-0.14.4-6 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.99.903-1 xorg-x11-drv-keyboard-1.1.0-1 xorg-x11-drv-mouse-1.1.0-1 xorg-x11-drv-nv-1.1.1-2 xorg-x11-drv-vesa-1.1.0-1 vnc-server-4.1.1-38 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Add Load "vnc" to xorg.conf 2.Restart X Actual results: It won't start. /var/log/Xorg.0.log ends with: *** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not *** be the reason for the server aborting. Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/Xorg(xf86SigHandler+0x90) [0x4783b0] 1: /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x30e072f620] 2: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so [0x2aaaab88a046] 3: /usr/bin/Xorg(miWindowExposures+0xfa) [0x4c4f2a] 4: /usr/bin/Xorg [0x48515a] 5: /usr/bin/Xorg(MapWindow+0x3b6) [0x4358a6] 6: /usr/bin/Xorg(main+0x406) [0x431186] 7: /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4) [0x30e071cf34] 8: /usr/bin/Xorg(FontFileCompleteXLFD+0xa9) [0x4304d9] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting Expected results: It works with earlier releases. If I downgrade rawhide to the following rpms, it works again: synaptics-0.14.4-4.2.1.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-drv-keyboard-1.0.1.3-1.2.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-drv-mouse-1.0.4-1.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-drv-nv-1.0.1.5-3.1.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-drv-vesa-1.0.1.3-1.2.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.1-9.x86_64.rpm The problem occurs with both nv and vesa as the main drivers. I could try radeon as well, but this used to freeze the entire machine hard as soon as I connected from a vnc client, so I won't even bother. Additional info: This problem with vnc started on April 10, as mentioned in bug 186442. There have been X and vnc updates since that date, but none that fixed the problem.
This is fixed in rawhide.
