I have some experience with a Linux server at home, but very little with
Xwindows. I have Redhat 6.1 with Gnome and KDE window mgrs installed. I
start vncserver on the Linux box then try to connect using a windows 98
machine. Viewer connects fine and shows "Root's desktop", sometimes there
is an xterm window, sometimes not, the mouse is working and left clicking
brings up a quick menu. The FAQs indicate Xserver is using FVM or FWM
(spelling??) by default but I don't think my server is using that. What
command(s) do I put in the VNC startup script to load the Gnome or KDE
desktop? When I have an xterm window, and I type "startx", the Xdesktop
loads on the server and not my win98 connection. What do I need to do to
fix this? Why does ROOT's desktop load and not my personal one.
Thanks, Lisa Beasley
