1.160.1. RHBA-2010:0563: bug fix update

Updated vnc packages that fix various bugs are now available.
Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a remote display system which allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of machine architectures.
These updated vnc packages resolve the following issues:
* libvnc.so module to Xorg wasn't able to wake up the main Xorg process when entered to the DPMS standby mode. Now, when libvnc.so receives keyboard or mouse event over network, it wakes up the Xorg and turns down running screensaver. ( BZ#607566)
* the VNC server script didn't accept +option switches when specified before [:X] display number. This issue is now resolved. ( BZ#607567)
All VNC Users are advised to upgrade to these updated VNC packages, which resolve those issues.
