Re: tightvnc not honoring .xinitrc file

Hi, 

My reply is late, but anyway: you can modify ~/.vnc/xstartup to include or 
refer to your .xinitrc.

Best,
Alex

 unfortunately I get a light gray bacground with a single xterm in the upper
 left hand corber. What can I do to ake it honor the .xinitrc file?

 left hand corber. What can I do to ake it honor the .xinitrc file?

man Xvnc

Or you might try removing 'twm ' in ~/.vnc/xstartup and adding, eg, 'exec
startkde '.  Works for me.
