The guidance in the wiki directs how to install on a SERVER however the way to install on the Desktop version differs.
First (if you haven't already) install vnc4server
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get vnc4server
Code: Select all
nano .vnc/xstartup
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
#exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
gnome-session --session=ubuntu-2d &
[ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
vncconfig -iconic &
#x-terminal-emulator -geometry 1280x1024+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
#x-window-manager &
Start up the VNC server with the following command
or if you want to size the windowvncserver
Code: Select all
vncserver -geometry 1280x1024
On the remote machine start up your VNC viewer and you will now have a window with the Unity desktop.
Hope that helps.
