For starters you might take a look at this https://forums.opensuse.org/blogs/jdmcdaniel3/how-use-vnc-remmina-remote-control-opensuse-12-3-kde-desktop-132/

When I enter vncserver I get the following error “Couldn’t find Xvnc on your path”

#4

Xvnc is in the package “xorg-x11-Xvnc”. Do you have that installed?

#5

Yes I have installed it and when I enter “whereis Xvnc” it shows nothing

The xorg-x11-Xvnc is not installed or it is a corrupted install, try


su -
zypper in -f xorg-x11-Xvnc

and confirm with yes to reinstall it if it tells you it is already there.
