I've just installed for the first time Fedora Core 1 (yarrow). I do alot

invoke when I access my VNC server remotely, I don't see my KDE or Gnome
environments, I just see the X window.
Could someone point me to the documentation I need to configure my server.
In the future when posting to the list, PLEASE include a subject line.
Depending on which user you intend to be when you access via VNC, you
need to go to that user's home directory and into the ".vnc" directory.
For user "fred", you can do this via:
cd ~fred/.vnc
Edit the "xstartup" file. Somewhere around line 3, you'll see these
lines:
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
# unset SESSION_MANAGER
# exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
Uncomment the second two lines so it reads:
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
When next you access the system via VNC, it should go through the user's
normal X startup sequence (including window manager and such).
