I just gave the current CVS (2007-08-21) a try. Looks like the
standalone Xvnc Xserver works for me (didn't test test this much), but
the vnc module does not.

(II) LoadModule: "vnc"
(II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules//extensions/libvnc.so
dlopen: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules//extensions/libvnc.so: undefined symbol: GetMotionHistory
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules//extensions/libvnc.so
(II) UnloadModule: "vnc"
(EE) Failed to load module "vnc" (loader failed, 7)

I'm using xorg-server 1.3.0.0. I'm wondering whether xf4vnc uses any
new pre 1.4 features? The dependancy for libpixman is new as well.

Best regards,
Stefan
