I am having this same exact problem.  I haven't rebooting the server in
almost a year and after doing some maintenance I rebooted.  Now I can't get
vfb started.  All I get is the usage statement.

There was no response to this message, but I'm hoping Brian is still around
to give me some pointers.

 I am having a weird one with my Netview server.  I am trying to start the  
 X11 vfb for the web console daemon netviewd - but when I run startXvfb it  
 gives me a usage statement and does not start.  It was working for months  
 until we rebooted the server this morning.                                 
                                                                            
 I have tried re-installing the X11.vfb package, but it still fails.        
                                                                            
 Has anyone seen this behaviour before?                                     
                                                                            
 Thanks,
