Test in intrepid: 0. sudo apt-get install vnc4server 1. vncserver 2. vncserver -kill :1 3. edit ~/.vnc/xstartup to be: unset SESSION_MANAGER exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc 4. vncserver 5. Open "Remote Desktop Viewer" 6. "Connect" to "localhost:13"
Expected: GNOME session starts. Bug: Nothing starts. I think the bug is in xinit. I checked Fedora 9, and they have xinitrc set to 755. I modified xinit-1.0.9-2 to, at postinst, chmod o+x xinitrc. It seems to fix it for me. ** Attachment added: "debdiff xinit_1.0.9-2 xinit_1.0.9-2ubuntu1~ppa1" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18656349/deb.diff -- vnc4server startup script error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
