I am trying to set up VNC on a new opensuse 10.2 installation.
When I run vncviewer it connects to the vncserver but all I get is the
Xll grey screen with the large X shaped cursor - No xdm login screen!
After a timeout period the connection closes and the vncviewer exits.
Symptoms are the same when I run vncviewer on a remote or on the local
machine.
What have I not done?
Things I have done:
1. Enabled xinet, and through yast enabled vnc1 - vnc3
2. Through yast enabled xdmcp
3. Turned off firewalling

Things I have noticed:
1. There is a duplicate entry in /etc/services for port 5900/tcp.
2. netstat -a shows that xinetd is listening on 5900
3. When I run vncviewer, ps ax on the server shows Xvnc is running
I have VNC running OK on a laptop using SuSE 9.3
A difference on the 9.3 version is that the argument :42 appears in the
xinetd entries for vnc1,2, and 3
Any ideas?
Yes. When having problems with an application, the first
thing to do is to go to that application's website;
In this case, visit http://www.vnc.com/
