Hi,

Thanks. I've updated the skeleton to

 1. Create /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions if required
 2. Only attempt to install vnc.so if it exists (to cater for
    silent failures like you've found)

I think that's too much of a burden. I would prefer to place the
vnc.so module where an X server would find it but not force the user
to install X to make use of it.

An updated patch (against the current vnc 3.3.7 skeleton)  is 
attached and I've updated the tarball at 
http://romana.now.ie/software/vnc4.tgz


Thanks!
