Hi guys,



Whether I invoke VNC from a remote or local terminal and, no matter the command line I submit, I get:

X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 73 (X_GetImage) Serial number of failed request: 40 Current serial number in output stream: 40
The session starts like normal...

Any ideas? Is this just me?





Cheers,
