I have had similar issues on FC6 and beyond. The default xorg.conf
file does not have a modules section. It is determining what to
load by other means. When I added the section with just a
module vnc statement, it dropped loading some other modules which
caused errors. My workaround was to scan the /var/log/Xorg.0.log
to see what modules were loaded and then put them in the modules
section. The operation is still a bit flakey. It does not work
as well as it did in fc2-fc5. I get a lot of screen artifacts.
I raised this question on both this list and the Xorg list with
no usable results. Maybe I will try the VNC list. There is
a related bugzilla, but it has not gone anywhere.
