Re: VNC on HP-UX 11.31 ia64 not working

www.realvnc.com didn't have any other 4.1 versions available. So I googled "realvnc 4.1.2 download hpux tar file" and found
www.fileplay.net/file.../vnc-free-edition-for-hp-ux-11-11i-pa-risc-v4-1-2 -- not sure this link will work, but google using the above search and you should find it.

Re: VNC on HP-UX 11.31 ia64 not working

Xsession will start, but it's very fussy and performance is horrible. Still no front panel like I'm used to seeing.

The old xstartup file had:
1 #!/bin/sh
2
3 /usr/dt/bin/Xsession &
This xstartup file has:
!/bin/sh

[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
vncconfig -iconic &
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
twm &

I just restarted it and it's 1000 times better.

restarting vncserver with xstartup=
#!/bin/sh

/usr/dt/bin/Xsession &

Works great. Thank you

The above performance is great and I can now see the front panel. But it's still fuzzy.

Issue resolved
1-Make sure Base CDE is installed.
2-Make sure xstartup has CDE session startup

Thanks to all who helped.

I'll start a new session to address the fuzzy fonts.

Thanks David!

I couldn't get 4.1.3 to work (unsat symbol) and didn't want to attempt building it from source. I read 4.1.2 worked well but couldn't find it.

Yes. I added this to the vncserver script:
$cmd .= " -fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/hp_roman8/75dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/iso_8859.1/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/iso_8859.1/75dpi/";
