tightvnc+X problems

hello there. iam running my linux box as a remote server.
here is when i start the program:
aristosibm@debian:~$ vncserver

New 'X' desktop is debian:2

Starting applications specified in /home/aristosibm/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/aristosibm/.vnc/debian:2.log

aristosibm@debian:~$

but when i connect from the client(windows) all i see is a grey screen. here is the xstartup:
#!/bin/sh

# Red Hat Linux VNC session startup script
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

startkde

So what am i doing wrong?

you're leaving this line in.... "exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc" comment that out and then kde should load.

thanks for the reply dude. actually i works fine when i put startkde.
now how do i make it work for blackbox? i tried "startblackbox" and "blackbox", but none of these two work. any idea?
