Hello,
I installed fed6 and tried vncviewer on this server.As a result I had a
black screen with a cursor in it.I used the same CD's for a previous
installation and this worked without any problem.
What could be wrong.
vncserver is started. I had to type 'vncserver' to get a xstartup file
in
the $HOME/.vnc directory.
Isn't there anything like a checklist for vnc?
This installation is a horror.
----
users must set a password....
# su - SOME_USER
$ vncpasswd
I would recommend that you use /etc/sysconfig/vncserver
something like this...
VNCSERVERS="1:craig"
ARGS="-geometry 800x600 -depth 8 -alwaysshared "
and also something like this in this users home directory
$ cat ~/.Xclients-default
#! /bin/bash
# Created by Red Hat Desktop Switcher
WM="startkde"
WMPATH="/usr/bin /opt/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin"
for p in $WMPATH ; do
[ -x $p/$WM ] && exec $p/$WM
done
exit 1
I changed /etc/sysconfig/vncservers like this
----------->
VNCSERVERS="1:roland"
VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -depth 8 -nohttpd
-localhost -alwaysshared"
<------------
then I did: vncpasswd (for roland)
then I started the vncserver: service vncserver start which gave:
---------->
Starting VNC server: 1:roland
New 'gdfecurie.gdf.fr:1 (roland)' desktop is gdfecurie.gdf.fr:1
Creating default startup script /home/roland/.vnc/xstartup
Starting applications specified in /home/roland/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/roland/.vnc/gdfecurie.gdf.fr:1.log
[ OK ]
<----------
then I started the session with 192.168.100.241:1
which gave the same result :-(
Any ideas?
