Hello everyone, I take the article to inform vnc you that from today Gurulug will be active again. For several problems, or I could keep aggiornatoda a while, but now things change … What I want to do is enter in the blog, information on how to resolve situations that may arise usually having to do with GNU / Linux …
I present my main problem:
At home, I drive with a PC installed GNU / Linux Ubuntu and Windows XP SP3. Please use this machine is that principalmete for my experiments and to build my programs. It is also my only Windows installed machine co. I’m often asked to create programs eg Windows, and I somehow poterlifare … Going back to us, the problem is that this PC is connected to the LCD TV Samsung 32 pollci therefore not always available, in the sense that I do not have a lover of TV then use as a PC monitor, but my girlfriend uses it as a TV and I often can not use the computer because she has to see the Big Brother … I thought then to install vnc on the machine so that you can use from a ‘ other room with my laptop. How do I install vnc? Let’s say it was very simple, (I am referring to Ubuntu):
After opening the package manager you need to search in the search window and the word tightvnc find the Package Manager to install the program for you, right click on the left of the program in the square and Check this box for installation
Ok now that we have the necessary software installed TightVNC. Now let’s see how to use it. Open a terminal (Warning do not need administrator permissions), so no need to use “sudo”. just type the following command in a terminal:
vncserver: 1-wibble-name httpport 5901
That’s it, hit send and the program will tell you that a new session of ‘The X server has started, in fact hear the typical sound power of Ubuntu as if it were just left.
If you want to disable the vnc server, simply type in Terminal:
vncserver-kill: 1
Please note that (-name wibble) that I wrote above is just a fancy name you can write (foo, Mimmo, guy, foo, foo ..) you can omit the command-name. And here is the command in my terminal:
Now of course we started the server but as you connect from the client? Simply have a program in Ubuntu that is made specifically to connect to a vnc server and you have already installed by default. The program is called Remote Desktop Viewer and is very easy to use, essentially have nothing to do and he’ll just throw it lists the Remote Server found on the left. Select the one that interests you and click the Connect button on the top out (you can not go wrong). And that’s it now you have your remote control of the machine and you can use it from home without all that disappointed because no one wants to use your monitor as a TV … Hello!
Azz dimentcavo will place the image Viewer Remote Desktop for completeness:
I hope you enjoyed the article to all hello, a hug!
Warning! I noticed a small abnormality. If you have active compiz-fusion on your GNU / Limux that acts as a VNC server, you will notice that the client does not see the buttons and the window title bar … I tried to understand why disabling compiz but only on the machine acting as vnc server, you can solve the problerma.
