I'm trying to use the xorg module to share screens But I'm getting the following:
vncviewer:
TigerVNC Viewer 64-bit v1.2.0 (20140215)

CConn: unable connect to socket: Connection refused (111)

xorg log:
[ 7.452] (II) LoadModule: "vnc"
[ 7.515] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so
[ 7.658] (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so: undefined symbol: key_is_down

[ 7.658] (II) Unloading vnc
[ 7.658] (EE) Failed to load module "vnc" (loader failed, 7)

how do I get the module to load?

Recompile xorg-server with this patch, or upgrade to xorg-server-1.15 which has this patch already applied. If you upgrade xorg-server to 1.15, you need to use tigervnc-1.3.1-r1, currently in ~arch.

(x11-base/xorg-server-1.15.0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with
<=x11-base/xorg-server-1.14.49[-minimal] required by (x11-drivers/ati-drivers-13.12::gentoo, installed)

I guess I'll have to patch, which file should I be applying this patch to?
