Because there is a bug in the x0rfbserver program that causes the
program to shut itself
down if i scroll using the mouse. I am not sure why it does this, but
as soon as i roll my finger
up or down over that scroll wheel, the vnc server doesn't know what to
down and shuts itself down.
I wish there was an easy answer.
