It has been years since the last time I got gnome to work in a VNC session, it seems way too dependent on 3D stuff to function reasonably. I do have a working script, but I use FVWM and don't try to run a full blown gnome 3. I think the main trick to getting apps to work is to get a dbus session started. This provides me a minimal session where I can manually run other programs as I need them: #!/bin/bash exec > $HOME/.vnc/xstartup.log 2>&1 . $HOME/.bash_profile unset SSH_AGENT_PID unset SSH_CLIENT unset SSH_AUTH_SOCK unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS unset SSH_CONNECTION eval `dbus-launch --exit-with-session --sh-syntax` fvwm & /usr/bin/xterm -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
