    Full Ubuntu 15.04 desktop (Unity) under VNC

    Hi,

    I have tigervnc working 100% well.
    What do I have to write in my .vnc/xstartup file so that a FULL Ubuntu desktop comes on? I want to include:

    * The proper application-dependent menu bar at the top
    * The proper Unity menu on the left
    * All shortcuts working

    I am after the _full_ thing. I managed to run XFCE 100% OK, but I simply hate it. I managed to get Unity to come up, but not without errors relating to dbus etc.

    So, what's "the" magic formula to get a FULL Ubuntu/Unity desktop really?

    Merc.

    Hi,

    For the record, I read this:

    If I run lightdm-session, I end up with a Gnome (not Unity) desktop...

    I think I read somewhere that you need to have ubuntu-session in the startup configuration. I don't use unity so I might be wrong but it's worth a try.

    What OS did you install in the first place; Ubuntu (using unity), Ubuntu-gnome, or Xubuntu (XFCE desktop)?
