Hello,

I've been using TigerVNC server in my Gentoo(kde plasma) for a few months where i usually connect to it from my laptop Arch(gnome). I also use tigervnc as client to connect.

Yesterday i did an update and upgrade on my Gentoo, basically:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --update --deep --with-bdeps y @world

Today as usually, i connect to display 1 and i have a black screen.

/etc/conf.d/tigervnc:

Code:

occlus@Gentoo-PC ~/.vnc $ cat /etc/conf.d/tigervnc
# Config file for /etc/init.d/tigervnc

# Specify the user(s) Xvnc(1) should be run for. The syntax is: "username:display".
# example: "DISPLAYS="foo:1 bar:2" You can specify more users separated by space.
# DISPLAYS="myuser:1"

# Specify any of vncserver(1) and Xvnc(1) options. See the respective man pages for more information.
# VNC_OPTS=""

DISPLAYS="occlus:1"


/.vnc/xstartup:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
#exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

startkde &


/.vnc/display log:

Code:

startkde &
Shouldn't that be exec program instead of program &?

You should run a program that exists. I recall another thread here recently that concluded that the command startkde had been renamed to something else, along with the project's rebranding itself as "Plasma."

Hi Hu,

I tried "exec" before but it didn't work, same message appeared " Command not found " i also checked the gentoo guide and it still has "startkde &" as information, i thought it could be a bug from the update or incompatibility.

fedeliallalinea, " startplasma-x11 & " worked.

Thank you both for your help!

With thanks and regards,
