Hello,
I have a wee problem with vnc:
I can start up the server, it nabs :1.0 for itself, etc, I can see something using vncviewer, etc.
I have one problem thought - I can't get a windowmanager (or xterm for that matter) running at all.
Here are the errors from Cerberus:1.log:
05/09/03 01:49:11 Desktop name 'X' (Cerberus:1)

xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :1
...and my xstartup:
#!/bin/sh
# Temporarily-unneeded things commented out - Robbo
# xrdb doesn't seem to exist.
#xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
#xsetroot -solid grey
#xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
#twm &
#echo $DISPLAY > ~/foo.utxt.tmp
xterm -fg white -bg black -rightbar -ls -title "`whoami`@`hostname` - vnc" &
/usr/local/bin/openbox &
Both options (as in, openbox or twm) worked for a while, but then it mysteriously stopped working (uh oh... Windows-user off the starboard bow, evasive manouvers...). I haven't a clue what botched it up, as I haven't really installed much at all since tightvnc...
Any ideas of what I should check? Any flashes of insight on what's causing the errors?
Thanks 'eaps for enduring this post,

(I'm running Red Hat 8.0, and I've had some weird permissions in the past, such as inaccessible man pages and the like. I narrowed it down to 'umask', so it's fine at the moment... It might be related, that's all.)
