[arch-general] unable to run emacs through VNC

I have arch running on a machine that I access through vnc. I just installed and tried to run emacs on the arch machine in an xfce terminal window, but I get the following error: $ emacs logcfg.dat Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0". Undefined color: "black" $ Every other program I've tried (which admittedly is not many) has worked fine. What do I need to do to resolve this issue and run emacs?
