It's a grey screen with an "X" on it...

Vu... on server end... in ~/.vnc (or where ever you have it)  alter xstartup 
to look like...

#!/bin/sh
startkde

#comment above and uncomment below to turn off kde and enable twm

#xsetroot -solid grey
#xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "VNC Desktop" &
#twm &


Shutdown vncserver and restart... Your clients will probably work now....
