When setting up solaris you will probably get a grey screen. The Q&A suggest using a different desktop type. For a full list of the options check: http://www.ifh.ee.ethz.ch/~ballisti/computer_topics/docs/vnc_docs/vnc.html <http://www.ifh.ee.ethz.ch/~ballisti/computer_topics/docs/vnc_docs/vnc.html>
CDE works well. How to choose the Desktop type In the example above we used the default Desktop wich is the X one. The VNC software create a subdirectory in your home directory called .vnc (note the "." bevore the name vnc). In this subdirectory there is a file called xstartup in which we can write the commands which starts a Desktop. Default content for "~/.vnc/xstartup" is: For X11 (tested and OK): #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xdefaults xsetroot -solid grey xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm & This will start a X-Desktop (and has been tested). But you may want KDE or others. Here a list (please tell me your experience with it): The two lines: xsetroot -solid grey xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & can be added to each of the files below. For KDE (tested and OK): #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xdefaults /usr/sepp/bin/startkde-1.1 & ATTENTION: recently we got problems with the command above. PLEASE substitute the line with startkde-1.1 with: launchx KDE For fvwm2 (tested and OK): #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xdefaults /usr/sepp/bin/fvwm2 & For CDE (tested and OK ): #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xdefaults /usr/dt/bin/dtwm This communication is intended solely for the person (s) or organisation to whom it is addressed.
