Can anyone offer a workaround for the problem reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214169 since having vnc running but also having graphics running sweetly is kind of important? Thanks Mike
Don't do the following:
Section "Module" Load "vnc" EndSection
VNC works just fine without it. Just install the vnc-server RPM on the system you wish to access remotely. DO NOT modify xorg.conf. You can then either start vncserver on the remote host by enabling the service or by just running the server from the command line as the user who will use the remote access. In this configuration, glxinfo says everything is ducky and glxgears runs from a console window. However, glx functionality is NOT available through VNC.
About the only problem I've run into is running vncserver as a service doesn't seem to respect the geometry argument I'm giving it the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers. Starting vncserver from the command line works as expected.
