I'm trying to run a vncserver from within openvz.<br>According to the wiki this should be easy:<br><a href="http://wiki.openvz.org/X_inside_VE">http://wiki.openvz.org/X_inside_VE</a><br><br>My vncserver dies with a "could not open default font 'fixed'" error.
<br><br>My base server is RedHat Enterprise 4, and my VEs are CentOS 4.<br><br>I've done much googling and I'm not getting anywhere.<br>Here is my vncserver log:<br><br><br>Xvnc version 4.0 - built Feb 21 2005 15:50:07
