So I hope this is the right place for this thread, it was here or window managers...
Anyway, I have tightvnc installed on my bsd box, and kde3.5
here is my tightvnc config ($ ee ~/.vnc/xstartup):
the tutorial I used: http://www.freebsddiary.org/tightvnc.php
This works perfectly fine when I connect to it with TightVNC from windows 7. I have done some reading and it seems all you need to do to use kde is change 'twm &' to 'startkde &' kill the server start the server and connect. And it should start but mine doesn't, I get this(image was 1280x1024 but I downsized):
I've also tried 'kdm &' and the result for that is twm with no borders. I've also tried using root to start the server but I get the same results with startkde as when I use a normal user to start the server. I know for a fact that kde was working before disconnecting the monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
Any suggestions as to whats wrong?? Or an alternative method to use remote desktop??
