Cannot start tightvncserver
Hi,
I'm using testing and I have trouble starting tightvncserver. I
couldn't find a solution on google :( . When I launch
tightvncserver :1
then I get this output:
Couldn't start Xtightvnc; trying default font path.
Please set correct fontPath in the tightvncserver script.
Couldn't start Xtightvnc process.

Font directory '/usr/share/fonts/X11/Speedo/' not found - ignoring
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
I don't understand why is it looking for Speedo font... $fontPath
doesn't include Speedo nor in /etc/vnc.conf nor in
/usr/bin/tightvncserver. Does some package contain the speedo font?
Which is that package?
