Getting VNC to run with Gnome
I was hoping someone could tell me how to get Gnome running in a VNC server. I've edited ~/.vnc/.xstartup to try and get it to work. I've tried invoking gnome-session by itself, and I've also tried 'exec gnome-session'. Regardless of the line, when I connect to the vnc server, all I get is the standard grey background and the big X for a cursor. It's really starting to bug me... :)
Any ideas (or answers) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |
Hmmm... maybe I ought to look at log files before posting. It says I "already have a session manager running". So, I guess I need to read some more about Gnome, but feel free to step in anytime if you've don all this before.

I found the answer to the problem thanks to an archived thread already here.
Change the ~/.vnc/xstartup file to contain the following: Code:
#!/bin/sh |
