Well, this isn't a remote machine, but I don't have X installed. I do have libvncserver installed.

All I have configured in xend-config.sxp is (vnc-listen '0.0.0.0') and (vncpasswd 'password'). I honestly didn't have the password configured before, but blank or not, it still doesn't start a VNC server.

Regards,

Hi Michael,

Did you configure the VNC server in xend-config.sxp? Is it a remote
host, or are you in front of the machine?

Thanks,

I'm trying to launch a pvm SXDE machine.  I recently upgraded to 3.2
via the Ubuntu Hardy packages and now I can't seem to get vnc to launch.

I want VNC to launch a server after boot but I'm currently stuck with
using the text console.  I have tried using vnc=1 as before, but there
are no vnc related log entries in xend.log to help me figure out why
the vnc server is not launching.  I have the libvncserver libraries,
etc installed.

Using vnc=1 and vncviewer=1 launches vncviewer with -listen but the
server never starts so vncviewer never launches a display.

I wanted to see if there are some common solutions that might work for
this.  If not then I can post entries from the xend.log, etc.  But so
far there are no errors being reported in xend.conf.  The domain
launches fine, but no VNC server is launched.

Regards,
