>Description:
When trying to run vncserver script, I get the following errors:

Couldn't open RGB_DB '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb'

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'

then server dies.


The fixed font requested by the port is there:
su-2.05b# ls -al /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  4366 Aug 28 
02:06 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz


Also tried to change -fp on vncserver script:

[...]
failed to set default font path '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/'
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'


But the font drectory is there and valid!

Tried to reinstall xorg* to no avail.


Note that it also fails to get the rgb file, but its there too:
su-2.05b# ls -al /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  17371 Sep  3 00:35 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt

X.org starts normally.


Since vnc works on i386 (just installed one) this could be an amd64 problem only ?

Is same problem when buildinf VNC from ports or adding the package
