Error Message:
Error activating XKB configuration
Probably internal X server problem
 
X server version data:
The XFree86 Project, Inc
40300000

You are using XFree 4.3.0
There are known problems with complex XKB configurations.
Try using simpler configuration or taking more fresh version 
of XFree software.

If you report this situation as a bug, pleas include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R  /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb


Answer from RealVNC:
Hi,

VNC Free Edition 4.1.2 doesn't provide the XKB extension. The fact that
that causes parts of Gnome to crash or report errors seems to be a bug in
Gnome - X applications should not in general assume the presence of X
extensions unless they are incapable of operating without them.

Regards,
