Bug#497954: xvfb: First example from the man page crashes.



Package: xvfb
Version: 2:1.1.1-21etch5
Severity: normal

The man page suggest ths as an example:

Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1600x1200x32

and it crashes with this error:

Fatal server error:
Couldn't add screen 0

The problem is the depth, x24 works fine but xvncviewer doesn't like
that and moves down to x16 which is no use for me.
