I administer several 'family' computers using vnc server running on
the root display (n.b. on root display)
To achieve this I did the following in Fedora 10:
Created an xorg.conf with the following lines
#
# Minimal xorg.conf for vnc on root display
#
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Option "passwordfile" "/usr/local/etc/vnc/passwd"
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "vnc"
EndSection
Retsarting X (telinit 3; telinit 5)
Shows vnc starting - /var/log/Xorg.0.log has:
...
(II) LoadModule: "vnc"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libvnc.so
(II) Module vnc: vendor="RealVNC Ltd"
compiled for 4.3.99.902, module version = 1.0.0
Module class: X.Org Server Extension
ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 1.1
(II) Loading extension VNC
...
However nothing is listening on port 5900 ...
So it doesn't work.
Any help much appreciated.
thanks.
