fbvnc in ipaq



I installed 'pocketworkstation' in an ipaq h3765 running 'familiar' 0.8.2, 
and it runs very nicely. However, I tried to compile and install fbvnc 
from source, in order to try later to add support for my external 
keyboard. The instructions in 
	http://pocketworkstation.org/fbvnc.html
namely, 
> Get the Unix source code for VNC, unpack and compile it. It is available 
> from http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/.
> You also need the ofbis library, available from: 
> http://osis.nocrew.org/ofbis/. Set the path in fbvnc/Imakefile to match 
> where you installed this library.
> Move the fbvnc directory into the VNC source directory:
>      # mv fbvnc vnc_unixsrc/
> Now you can build the code:
>     # cd fbvnc
>     # xmkmf
>     # make
seem slightly outdated, but I was able to gather the required packages and 
to compile them. The problem is that my compiled fbvnc yields a blank 
screen while the distributed binary fbvnc works beautifully. 
1) Has anyone compiled fbvnc lately? 
2) Any advice? 
3) Has anyone been able to make a stowaway keyboard work together with 
fbvnc?
