I know this is a bit of an old post, but I get the exact same thing, and it is accompanied with a black screen when trying to establish a vnc session. To be honest, it is infuriating because it happens so often, and we are to the point of taking drastic action (like replacing suse with a different distro)…

Has anyone found a solution to this? We have developers that are dead in the water from time to time because of this, and we have not found a solution.

The only thing that works so far is to wipe the users home directory ie. remove all of their settings. Doing this 3 or 4 times a day really isn’t feasible.

We had the black screen problem, too.

Adding the parameter “-geometry 1920x1200” to the server_args option of vnc1 solved the problem.
1920x1200 is our default screen resolution for workstations.

Maybe a reboot is necessary.
