The only thing I can think of is that this could be a problem with IslandDraw
not working with certain X visuals / depths.  What depth is the X server that
you're using that it works on and what depth is your Xvnc?  You can try
different depths using the "-depth d" option to Xvnc/vncserver, and also with
"-depth 8" you can use "-cc 3" to force Xvnc to use a PseudoColor visual.

Hope this helps
