7: GNOME RPM installation order
Posted on Sunday, February 29 @ 13:28:20 CST
Topic: 2: Toshiba Magnia hacks

If you want your VNCserver to serve up more than a text window, you need to install a GUI. After much trial-and-error, here's the install order I ended up with:

installing package enlightenment-0.16.5-1 needs 8Mb on the / filesystem
oh well, guess I don't need enlightenment!
EDIT /root/.vnc/xstartup TO LOOK LIKE THIS:
#!/bin/sh
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
exec gnome-session
YES, IT ACTUALLY WORKS...
I am going to try KDE next, I didn't like gnome very much :P
