I'm not sure X ports will help you much as they are modified in a way that permits building and installing separate components of the distribution (and ports specific stuff like setting CFLAGS, PTHREAD_LIBS and such in ) and that might not be what your VNC sources are expecting. Other than that, building X outside of ports should work by just 'make World'. Dejan
