Question on viewing the desktop

[Mithrilhall2000]

I edited the xstartup to:
Here's what the file contained:
#!/bin/sh

xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & kde &

As well as:

Here's what the file contained:
#!/bin/sh

xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & startkde
&


Neither of these worked. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Ok, found the file. Sorry about that I'm still kind of new.

Here's what the file contained:
#!/bin/sh

xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm &


How would I get this to load KDE?

Are you a unix person?  '~' is your home directory.  Try this:

cd ~
cd .vnc
ls

do you see xstartup?

Should see it this way too:

ls ~/.vnc/xstartup
