The VNC session starts, a grey screen appears with an "X" cursor, but KDE never starts. I was able to manually start a vncserver session from the command line and was able to successfully connect to that remotely. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

John, please post the output of the following command: fgrep DisplayManager.requestPort /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

...

I cannot provide the information you requested as the machine associated with my original report has already been reimaged with another OS.

Did remote administration work on other machines or is this the only one you tried it on? Please follow up here in Bugzilla rather than in private email. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In case it was gdm, pleas close this bug report as a duplicate of bug #441396. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
