Setup VNC Server in BT5 r3 KDE

October 30, 2012 Leave a comment
  1. Install vncserver – ‘apt-get install vnc4server’
  2. Run – ‘vncserver’
  3. Setup 8-character password
  4. Edit xstartup – ‘vi ~/.vnc/xstartup’
  5. Comment out entire file
  6. Append the following three lines to the file:
    • export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
    • exec ck-launch-session startkde
    • exec pcmanfm –desktop
  7. Run – ‘vncserver -kill :1’
  8. Run – ‘vncserver’

You then just need to install the free VNC Viewer on the client machine and make sure to add ‘:5901’ to the end of the IP address of your new vncserver.
