I am using Redhat Linux 9 with KDE.

I start vnc server (the built-in one) using:

vncserver -depth 16 -geometry 1350x1000

VNC server seems working. I am able to login using RealVNC client from
my windows xp box. I can see the vnc screen with my x desktop.
However, Linux (mostly KDE) crashes everytime I login through the VNC
client. The following message is shown (inside a KDE crashes popup
window) on both my remote windows xp (vnc screen) and my linux box
screen:

Short description
The applicatoin unknown(ksplash) crashes and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

What is this:
An applicaiton mostly receives the SIGSEGV signal due to a bug in the
application. The application was asked to save its documents.

I used to run vnc on Redhat enterprise 3 and 4 successfully.

I did not make any configuration change for VNC. Do I need to do anything extra?

Here's the content of xstartup under /home/<user>/.vnc.

#!/bin/sh

# Red Hat Linux VNC session startup script
unset SESSION_MANAGER
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

Please help!
