how to get KDE via VNC on the remote computer ?

hi

I'm using linux SuSE 8.1
If I connect via VNC viewer
to the machine with VNC server, I get only the shell screen.

How can I change that ?
I need KDE screen as root user.

Move your ~/.vnc/xstartup away, and do ln -s /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.vnc/xstartup

there is an export command
you first have to export the second desktop.

and then you'l get the option to login from the client but then use the ip address:2
or how it's exported (display 2)

so could be 192.168.1.2:0 / or 192.168.1.2:2
depending how you export your xserver display.

See VNC HOWTO in Google.

it works..
