[csw-users] vncserver + CSWGnome

[Jason Zhang]

Hi,

Anybody has experience on using CSWGnome with vncserver in solaris 10
sparc ?

I installed the lateste solaris 10 on Sun-Fire-V210:

------------------------------
bash-3.00$ uname -a
SunOS firebird 5.10 Generic_127127-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210
-------------------------------
Followed instruction on http://www.blastwave.org/howto.html to install
CSWgnome

The vncserver comes with Solaris default installation and it is RealVNC
4.0

------------------------------
-bash-3.00$ which vncserver
/usr/bin/vncserver

------------------------------
If I am using this xstartup:


------------------------------
-bash-3.00$ more xstartup.jds
#!/bin/sh

exec /usr/bin/gnome-session
------------------------------

I can connect to the box and get nice JDS gnome desktop.

but if I copy /etc/dt/config/Xinitrc.CSWgnome as my xstartup, I will get
message in log file when starting vncserver:


------------------------------
-bash-3.00$ tail firebird\:1.log 
Wed Jun 18 13:16:57 2008
 vncext:      VNC extension running!
 vncext:      Listening for VNC connections on port 5901

Window manager warning: 0 stored in GConf
key /apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces is not a reasonable number of
workspaces, current maximum is 36
Window manager warning: Log level 32: could not find XKB extension.

------------------------------

and when I login using vncviewer, there is no gnome panel at all, only a
desktop with Computer, Trash, Desktop Overview and StarOffice 8.
Anything went wrong ? Or CSWGnome does not work with vnc ?

Thanks for your advice!
