Hi all, I am having issues with running tightvnc-server on a CentOS 5.1 x86_64 machine (currently up-to-date, kernel 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5). Occasionally, the Xvnc instance will just crash, taking with it everything that I was running. When it crashes, it seems to do so when I try to open some GUI program. So, for instance, I click on a shortcut to open a program, and poof, it crashes. But it does

I tried to use tightvnc back in August and had some help, but I stopped due to IPv6 support. Now I am back at tightvnc and cannot get the server started. This is on a new Centos install that did have regular vncserver working on it (I did a yum erase vnc-server first). So I have a working /etc/sysconfig/vncserver and my user has the appropriate ~/.vnc files that worked with regular vnc.

Hello, I want to run some program with Wine in a headless server. However, I want to access it via VNC, so I am using Xvnc (vncserver is a wrapper script) from tightvnc as a X server. But I have a problem: wine doesn't detect the display of the X server. This is what happens: Code: [martin at urano ~]$ DISPLAY=:1 [martin at urano ~]$ vncserver :1 New 'X' desktop is urano:1 (...)

Hi, I created my first Xen DomU running Solaris today using the instructions from this page Creating Solaris domU virtual disk images at OpenSolaris.org <http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/xen/How-To-07-2006/Solaris-domU/> and it works out of the box! That''s cool again! If you''re going to do the same (and I encourage you to do so!) be aware that it takes a

I've been trying to run wine inside an Xvnc server, but no matter what I do, wine, wineconsole, winecfg, I get the same error: $ winecfg Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin winecfg.exe ... glxcmds.c:343: CreateContext: Assertion `mode != ((void *)0)' failed. wine: Assertion failed at address 0xb7d47947 (thread 0009), starting debugger... err:seh:start_debugger Couldn't start debugger

http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise/4.1/ipv6.html IPv6 support in VNC Server E4.1.7/P4.1.2 VNC Server E4.1.7 & P4.1.2 are fully IPv6-aware, but is shipped with IPv6 support disabled by default, for security reasons. IPv6 can be enabled by setting "InTransports=IPv6,IPv4" (the default being IPv4 only), either on the command-line when starting vncserver under Unix Ok.

The VNC server just listens to the appropriate TCP/IP port and then runs Xvnc which does the actual VNC communication. Ideally I'd be able to do the same thing for RDP then the daemon doesn't get any more complicated, and a bug in the RDP layer can't crash the server. I don't know enough about how NX works but I suspect we could do the same thing as for VNC and RDP. I'm

I connected from my desktop Linux box to a Linux server using ssh in an xterm, but that xterm was running in Xvnc. I'm running R on the server in that xterm (over ssh). Something went wrong with Xvnc that has caused it to hang, probably this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vnc4/+bug/819473 So I can't get back to that ssh session or to R. I had done a bunch of work

http://cr.opensolaris.org/~johnlev/xvm-vnc-chown/ Now Xvnc runs as the ''jack'' user on the live CD, the password file must be owned by jack for it to work. Note that a full fix for this would make this VNC service only exist on the live CD[1]. As a temporary measure, we just disable ourselves post-install. Process question: after putting back to pkg-gate, does this need

You would think installing via yum would handle dependencies, but perhaps fonts are not managed like dependencies..... Anyway, I installed tightvnc to test out its IPv6 support. Installed ok (after I erased regular vnc). But when I tried to start it, I got 5 warnings about: Font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc' not found - ignoring (then the same message for Speedo, Type1,

Hi, I am pretty new to libvirt, but have succeeded in setting up two VM's, Windows 10 and ClearOS (a Centos derivative) and they both have the same issue. I have installed both of them with a UK English keyboard, but the host machine is remote and in the US with a US locale. When I access either through VNC (I've tried TightVNC and VNC-Viewer), a number of my keys don't map

Need some pointers here. I've got CentOS 4.4, and I want to control my OSX 10.4.9 box via VNC. It connects, and I get a little dot for the mouse cursor, but just a black screen. I can see the mouse controlling the OSX desktop... Here's the output when I start in a terminal: [d at f ~]$ vncviewer VNC server supports protocol version 3.889 (viewer 3.3) VNC authentication succeeded

After several days of problems, I finally got Xen 3.0.1 set up in Ubuntu Breezy with the 2.6.12 kernel on a VT-enabled system with an Intel 930 processor and 2GB of memory. I have been able to install an unmodified guest without any issues other than performance. The guest runs extremely slowly and the mouse and keyboard are all but useless because of the extreme lag. I''ve tried multiple

Hi, I would like to run a windows application (civilization 4 beyond the sword pitboss server) on a remote linux machine. After the start I want to use the GUI and then detach it. It works fine when $DISPLAY is a: ssh-X forwarding: But then the application does when I the ssh connection is closed. Xvfb: But this wont let me use the GUI. Until now I have tried: 1) Running the application

Hi, all : My user called Tom, and his vnc desktop suddenly did not work just now. Then I went to see the server log message , and found the following message: kernel: Xvnc[2779]: segfault at 00000000008 rip 000000000077af44 rsp 00007fff5ee310c0 error 4 kernel: eclipse[25300]: segfault at 00000000008 rip 000003210cfbc6c rsp 00007fff470c66a0 error 4 gconfd( tom-2764): Gconf server is not in use

I restarted the a Centos 5.6 server tonight and I ran in this issue: I was able to boot. Then instead of a normal boot with graphical interface the system requested : 'Enter run level' 'INIT' I typed 5 then I got 'INIT: no more process left in this run level How can I recover from the situation? This is a production system back-up are made but left on the disk and transfer

The python3 bindings create unicode objects from application strings on the guest (i.e. installed rpm, deb packages). It is documented that rpm package fields such as description should be utf8 encoded - however in some cases they are not a valid unicode string, on SLES11 SP4 the following packages fail to be converted to unicode using guestfs_int_py_fromstring() (which invokes

Hello all: I am trying to install CentOS 5.4 as a KVM guest. The host is running CentOS 5.4 and does not have X installed. I used ssh to connect to the host and ran this command (I formatted it for readability, it is all on one line): virt-install -n jamm12e -r 1024 --vcpus=1 --check-cpu --os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel5 --hvm --accelerate --cdrom=/tmp/CentOS-5.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso
