vncserver is a perl script that executes the binary Xvnc.
Can you start `Xvnc` (as in `Xvnc :3 -query localhost`)?

Something tells me you run a binary, not compiled for your system. What does


file `which Xvnc`

tell you? Is it a valid binary for your system?



CBee


btw: did you get vnc with your distribution? or did you get it from
internet?
