Multivnc for XOs(children) and Ubuntu box (teacher)

[Arjun Sarwal]

 (Somewhat in continuation with the x11vnc and vncviewer discussion
thread started here

Has anybody tried/gotten multivnc to work ?

I started the multivnc server on my Ubuntu box, and then I start
multivnc on the client side (on an XO) and it recognizes a multivnc
server running in the network and attempts to connect to it, but it
exits with the following information displayed. Log attached below.

 Any help/pointers towards getting this running on XOs, and/or
otherwise on a set of 2 desktops, as a first step towards getting this
to run on the XOs - would be helpful.  The instruction manual
available online is in Chinese and I cant seem to find an English
version. I will also be pinging to the RealVNC lists too.

Thanks in advance,
Arjun
