Anyone have an autoinstall script?
Hi for the past 48 hours I've been trying to get any desktop working on my VPS..
i've followed many tutorials and keep running into issues where either i get error messages or just a blank gray screen.
Can someone give me a working auto installer please.
I've tried gnome desktop, lxde, x server, and many others.
On a variety of OS's.
The last tutorial I followed was this one, https://www.ndchost.com/wiki/vps/x-server-vnc
which gave me a grey screen

Which OS? Ubuntu / Debian
Both :P
Ok I'll try that now. On Debian/Ubuntu I kept getting locale errors.
dpkg-reconfigure locales
i did vncpasswd to set a password, whats the username? when i try to login via remote desktop connection it asks for a username
blank..
I even tried doing vncpasswd and then service xrdp restart
on the login screen im using the default module sesman-Xvnc
I'm assuming thats correct
Hmm... It should just work using a blank username and the password you've set. Try the root password?
Hi,
i've follow this tutorial without problem. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-setup-vnc-for-ubuntu-12
yeah tried that as well, still no luck
Tried it on ubuntu before, didn't work. Tried it on debian 6 32 bit now and still have the same password login issue.
FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING THAT WORKS.
CentOS 6 - x86_64 (not valid for 32 bit) - View source
