设置vnc debian方式

Posted 2021-02-26

This is based upon a debian guide, it seems to work well for ubuntu as well, all these steps can be performed via remote ssh (no need to access the machine).

$ sudo apt-get install vnc4server
# the following will require a password setup
$ vnc4server -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24
# the following will output something like New 'Hostname:1 (user)' desktop is Tethys:1
$ vnc4server
 
# Now all that is left is to add to ~/.vnc/xstartup, the following
# The rest is the same
# add the following which creates a gnome-session on startup
gnome-session
