[arch-general] unable to run emacs through VNC

[D. R. Evans]

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?
