    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    
    
    # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
    unset SESSION_MANAGER
    # exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
    gnome-session --session=gnome-classic &
    
    
    [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
    [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
    xsetroot -solid grey
    vncconfig -iconic &
    #x-terminal-emulator -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
    #x-window-manager &
    Here is the vnc 1.log:
