I am running OpenSolaris 5.10 and set up a sparse zone(inherits most of bin directories from global zone). I ended up copying many etc and var files from global zone, eventually most of the stuff(firefox,gvim, etc.) working through ssh via X11. However, I am having problems setting up vncserver on the zone. This is what I get if I tried to start the vncserver.
vncext: VNC extension running!
vncext: Listening for VNC connections on port 5911
vncext: created VNC server for screen 0
Fatal server error:
