    Trying again: Problem with running Xvnc

    Running the following:

    sudo Xvnc :2 -query localhost -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 16 -once -fp /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc -DisconnectClients=0 -NeverShared passwordFile=/root/.vncpasswd

    The response is:

    vncext: VNC extension running!
    vncext: Listening for VNC connections on port 5902
    vncext: created VNC server for screen 0
    Could not init font path element /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc, removing from list!

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

    How do I fix the problem of the 'fixed' font?
    (/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc does not exist)

    Well, it turns out that the fonts location should be: /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc, and then I added at the end: -extension XFIXES.

    That fixed it.
