    vnc problems

    I've installed and setup vnc4server on my kubuntu machine successfully, but I get a grey screen and an x for a curser when I connect to it.

    Here's the log from the connection:

    _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6
    _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/thompson-desk:1
    _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6

    And here's my xstartup script:

    #!/bin/sh

    # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
    unset SESSION_MANAGER
    exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

    [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
    [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
    #xsetroot -solid grey
    vncconfig -iconic &
    xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
    startkde &

    Can anyone help me with this?

    Thanks

      There are a couple of posts on http://ubuntuforums.net that look similar. Try the instructions in this post and then reboot.
