I installed the vnc suite of tools (both on the remote server, as well as
the local client) where both machines run ubuntu-linux. I started the
vncserver on the server using vncserver which gives:
$ vncserver
New 'bombur:1 (karthik)' desktop is bombur:1
Starting applications specified in /home/karthik/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/karthik/.vnc/bombur:1.log
I am able to connect from the client side using:
$ vncviewer bombur:1
This however opens up an xterm and is not the desktop that is running on
bombur. I want to see the X-desktop that is running on the server. How do
I go about doing this?
Both client and server run xorg as the Xserver. Please let me know if more
information is needed to help (such as kernels/xorg versions/vnc versions
running on client/server).
Thanks in advance,
-K
