Use something like: tigervncserver --localhost no > --xstartup /usr/bin/xterm This should get you a VNC session running a > simple xterm. The call tigervncserver --localhost no --xstartup /usr/bin/xterm started an xterm and the MATE desktop in the background. After that I tried some variants in the ~/xstartup file. I got the original content from the internet, and didn't really understand it. The following variant works: unset SESSION_MANAGER unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS /usr/bin/mate-session That means instead of "exec /usr/bin/mate-session &" I now use "/usr/bin/mate-session" in the last line. Do you have any idea why the original call doesn't work anymore, and what is the difference between the calls? Many greetings, Matthias
