Hello. I am running mandrake 8.0 vnc version Xvnc version 3.3.3r1 I am running or trying to run a vnc server on my linux desktop and connect from my windows XP desktop.
all I get is a grey thatch pattern. I tired to change twm in the ~/.vnc/xstartup file to startkde, startgnome, startsawfish.. none of them work.. my log file looks like this: [jtowarn@cr787749-a .vnc]$ cat cr cr787749-a:1.log cr787749-a:1.pid [jtowarn@cr787749-a .vnc]$ cat cr787749-a\:1.log 23/11/02 17:59:52 Xvnc version 3.3.3r1 23/11/02 17:59:52 Copyright (C) AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. 23/11/02 17:59:52 All Rights Reserved. 23/11/02 17:59:52 See http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc for information on VNC 23/11/02 17:59:52 Desktop name 'X' (cr787749-a:1) 23/11/02 17:59:52 Protocol version supported 3.3 23/11/02 17:59:52 Listening for VNC connections on TCP port 5901 23/11/02 17:59:52 Listening for HTTP connections on TCP port 5801 23/11/02 17:59:52 URL http://cr787749-a:5801 xrdb: No route to host xrdb: Can't open display 'cr787749-a:1' xsetroot: unable to open display 'cr787749-a:1' xterm Xt error: Can't open display: cr787749-a:1 twm: unable to open display "cr787749-a:1" 23/11/02 18:00:09 Got connection from client 10.227.0.2 23/11/02 18:00:09 Protocol version 3.5 23/11/02 18:00:09 Ignoring minor version mismatch 23/11/02 18:00:11 Pixel format for client 10.227.0.2: 23/11/02 18:00:11 8 bpp, depth 8 23/11/02 18:00:11 true colour: max r 7 g 7 b 3, shift r 0 g 3 b 6 23/11/02 18:00:11 no translation needed 23/11/02 18:00:11 Using hextile encoding for client 10.227.0.2 23/11/02 18:00:11 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring unknown encoding type 3 23/11/02 18:00:15 Client 10.227.0.2 gone 23/11/02 18:00:15 Statistics: 23/11/02 18:00:15 key events received 1, pointer events 53 23/11/02 18:00:15 framebuffer updates 54, rectangles 123, bytes 411382 23/11/02 18:00:15 hextile rectangles 123, bytes 411382 23/11/02 18:00:15 raw bytes equivalent 811094, compression ratio 1.971632 [jtowarn@cr787749-a .vnc]$ what is the unable to open display messages for? and that routing message for xrdb? I can't really find much on the net on this, and there is actually another unanswered quesiton in this newsgroup about this. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
