Default Re: VNC problems

1. What version of Suse are you using? 11.1
2. Which Desktop -- KDE3, KDE4, Gnome or whatever? Gnome
3. There are several places in Yast for remote desktops server settings, exactly which one did you choose?

Really, I only know of two. What are the others? I used Remote Administration(VNC) to enable VNC and open the firewall. I also used Network Services (xinetd) to enable a different screen, but that did not work either.


4. Please post here the contents of the file xstartup which is located at /.vnc/xstartup (.vnc is a hidden directory).

I did not have one, I had to make one and I put in a file that I called xstartup :
#!/bin/sh
exec startx


5. There are several options for VNC in the firewall settings -- please describe exactly which one/s you chose

I am not sure about this one, but all I did was under allowed services and I allowed VNC Server and mini-HTTP Server.

6. Please post the response you get from this console command:
rpm -qa | grep vnc.

response:
libgtk-vnc-1_0-0-0.3.7-5.3
tightvnc-1.3.9-80.41
x11vnc-0.9.4-1.21
xorg-x11-Xvnc-7.4-17.4.1

Oh, one other thing that noticed is that my WebMin stopped working right after I started using VNC. I don't know if that is related or not.
