just installed the commercial evaluation version. it works as expected: 
perfectly!

i use a bad workaround:

1. Install the "normal" xtightvncviewer on the server,
2. on client change your Desktop to "Unix"-"Custom",
3. press Settings,
4. (*) Run the following command: [xtightvncviewer <name-of-vnc-server>]

i'm  using the standard settings of the xtightvncviewer and it works 
quite ok for me.

hope this helps

regards
