Hey guys,

I installed gnome desktop environment on Debian 6 x86

I used this tutorial: http://tipupdate.com/vnc-server-on-linux/

so my xstartup looks like this:

#!/bin/shxrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
x-terminal-emulator -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
# x-window-manager &
gnome-session &

But after a sudo reboot and restarting with vncserver thru putty.

I get the typical gray screen with a black cross. I tried googling around but can't find a fix.

Anyone got experiences with this?

Didn't work :(, thanks for helping though :p

EDIT: installed Centos, working great now.
