error opening security policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy

I just installed the Xvfb and when it starts it gives me this error? Do I need to install something else because this directory isn't even located on the machine?

It is looking for the X config files in the wrong place. Locate SecurityPolicy on your machine and reconfigure Xvfb to look for it there.

As far as I know it is needed for X to start, I'm running debian and its located /etc/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy.

Hmmm that's where mine was... wonder why find / SecurityPolicy didn't find it? Anyways I just copied it over and Xvfb doesn't complain anymore.

Thanks.
