Can you expand on how to run X?
You need to install X server from your distro or google for it. We use
SuSE9 and it has X server available for install but I have chosen not to
use it. After the install, from your shell, you do something like 'startx'
(that is what I used in Slackware on intel) and then 'vncserver'.

vncserver is a wrapper on top of x.

x, vnc and Gnome2 / KDE combination would put a significant load on CPU.
It is ok on Lintel workstations but in a CPU-starved mainframe
environment, I would personally (IMHO) not use it.

Richard:
Are you running X in the session you are trying to reach? If you are
running vnc client from windows, you need that. I know vnc connects but
since the X is not running you see nothing.

Try from your browser and point to http://<your ip>:5801
The java client would have been already installed when you installed the
vnc viewer.

I noted that by default vnc starts up as display 1, hence port 5801.

Alas, what you get on the browser without X makes putty's interface look
great!

I am attempting to get a vnc session started with Tao390 Linux.  I have
downloaded a vnc client to my WinXP box.  I start the vncserver on Linux
and then start the vnc client on my Windows machine, but nothing happens.

When I look at the WinXP Taskmgr I can see the vnc client running and when
I do a netstat -a from Linux I can see a session has been established with
the WinXP vnc client.

What am I missing?????
