[Solved] X fails to load vnc module after update.

Hello.

I'm sharing physical display by "load vnc" option in X.
After today's X related packages updates, X does not load vnc module.

When I downgraded xorg-server to 1.14.5-2 and related dependencies, I could not start X.
I don't think there is anything wrong with libvnc.so since there was no update for tigervnc.
Both x0vncserver and x11vnc are too slow for my needs.

So my questions are,
If I were to downgrade my xorg-server to 1.14.5-2, what packages other than its dependencies do I need to downgrade in order to start X successfully?
Is there any way to successfully load vnc in X with the current state of X packages?
Thank you.

Tigervnc needs to be recompiled, and a tiny patch is necessary too. I'll file a bug. Edit: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/38504

Thank you for replying, Gusar.

I am rebuilding with your patch, but it fails during make.
I think it's nearly there. I'll re-post when I figure out the reason.

Here is a excerpt of the output.
Makefile:776: recipe for target 'Xvnc' failed
Makefile:639: recipe for target 'all' failed
Makefile:584: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed

Re: [Solved] X fails to load vnc module after update.

I needed "--disable-dri3" and "--disable-present" options in PKGBUILD.

Anyway, thanks for saving me again, Gusar.

Re: [Solved] X fails to load vnc module after update.

Oops! I did add those to the tigervnc-svn PKGBUILD, that's why that one works, but I forgot to add them to the 1.3.0 PKGBUILD. I'll update the bug.
