KDE 3.1.4 and VNC

[curt007]

I'd love to get KDE working again from a VNC viewer -- it was working fine on my SuSE 8.1 Pro System before I upgraded it to SuSE 9.0 Pro with KDE 3.1.4. From my very limited knowledge of X and KDE it appears that there may be a font problem -- at the least.

KDE actually starts over the VNC conncetion but applications like Konqueror and Konsole crash with Signal 11 errors.

I have includes pieces of the VNC sever log that shows some of the multiple types of X, KDE, VNC errors that occur.

Any help to get this to work would be appreciated.

Here's some info on the VNC Server taken from their site: http://www.realvnc.com


Can I remote the normal X:0 display of my Unix workstation/server?
Not with the current standard VNC distribution. Xvnc starts a completely new X desktop (:n) which is independent of the standard X display of the workstation (:0). You can often get the effect you are looking for by starting an Xvnc session and then running a full screen viewer for it displayed on :0.

We plan to add full support for this in the standard VNC distribution. In the meantime, we've been told that Jens Wagner has a version which polls the screen - see x0rfbserver.

Maybe this can help you on your way:

I assume that X works when using your console .....
