VNC not viewing correctly
Hi everyone
I have two freebsd servers in my home and I have a small trouble with VNC. First of all, I have one running on KDE and another running of Gnome. I have looked up a lot of tutorials online and it seems that I have done the "right" thing. For my KDE Desktop, I have modified my xstartup to be: Code:
#!/bin/sh [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & #REMOVE TO RETURN TO DEFAULT #twm & #ADDED TO ALLOW KDE exec startkde #vncserver and when I connect to this computer, using #vncviewer x.x.x.x:1, I am only seeing a NEW kde environment. I thought VNC is supposed to bring you the CURRENT view. By current, I am referring to your current desktop so whatever files or folders you have opened during the vnc access should show up on the vnc viewer rather than a brand new fresh kde desktop. How do I modify my settings to allow this to happen? Note that I am using ktorrent and ktorrent doesn't allow multiple instances, so that I whenever I start up ktorrent under my current vnc sessions, it doesn't work. Second this is my gnome xstartup: Code:
#!/bin/sh [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & #UNCOMMENT TO RETURN TO DEFAULTS #twm & #ADDED for Gnome laptop gnome-session [disappearedng@home ~/.vnc]$ vncserver I get the following error xauth: (argv):1: bad "add" command line xauth: (argv):1: bad "add" command line Note that when i vncviewer my gnome desktop i CANNOT see anything. It's just a blank screen. Why? |
