View Full Version : [SOLVED] VNC - File Manager Only

Folks,

I've previously used tightvncserver via an ssh tunnel on two machines remotely - both have ended up giving me a file manager ONLY :mad:

I have not knowingly altered anything.

The machine I am currently trying to access is a RaspberryPi running Ubuntu-Mate

My xstartup file shows as follows;


#!/bin/sh

def
export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS

gnome-panel &
gnome-settings-daemon &
metacity &
nautilus &
gnome-terminal &
gnome-session &




Any suggestions appreciated.

Geoff
