This is probly simple, but I have not been able to find the answer. I want to vnc into my computer and get my current desktop. I use Fluxbox as my windows manager. Now when I vnc into my computer i jsut get the plain X.

Edit your ~/.vnc/xstartup file and take out the line with "twm" and replace it with fluxbox

well that is not exactly what I am trying to do. Let me try to explain again. I am trying to foward my curent X (Flux Box ) session to vnc. So when i log in through vnc I get what I ushilly see on the screen. I know this can be done becuase my friend who uses debian is able to do it.

Thanks
