When building VNC (net/vnc) with the server option, Xvnc and vncserver and friends are built. Xvnc is the X server for the VNC session. However, if the server cannot find the 'fixed' font, which is supposed to be in fonts.alias, the server dies. Fix: Install x11-fonts/font-alias. This should be a dependency of this port when the server option is selected. How-To-Repeat: Install Xorg and VNC via the ports collection with the X server option enabled in VNC.
