Oskar,
Assuming that you're killing your previous VNC servers with vncserver -kill,
rather than just repeatedly connecting to the same one, you're getting a
seemingly persistent grey X session because your chosen window manager
isn't actually running. Check the VNC server's log file for error messages
from the window or session manager.
Cheers,
Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

Subject: vnc on solaris 8, can't get rid of grey x session
hello,
I finally figured out how to make vnc work on solaris! (after lots of
research and experimenting!)
I installed the vnc from the companion CD (2/02)
add the /opt/sfw/bin and /usr/openwin/bin to PATH,
then modify vncserver script on /opt/sfw/bin;
at the defaultXStartup section, change the last line 'twm' section to
/usr/dt/bin/dtsession \n
I did this on a fresh install and it works!
I had another box where i left the twm and ran vncserver sessions.
Then I tried changing the vncserver script to be like above, but it
still gives me the old grey X session.
I tried removing the .vnc directory and making new password, but it
still gives me grey X session.
I'm guessing there must be some temp files somewhere (or
something like
that) that keeps the initial grey X session and keeps running
that even
after I changed the vncserver script.
What can I do to clear this out so it works with dtsession instead of
grey X session?
I also cleared out the /tmp directory but no luck.
killed all vncserver sessions and restarted - no luck.
even rebooted - no luck.
I think I'm pretty close to getting dtsession to come up
instead of grey
X session but I'm at a dead end.
HELP!!
Thank you,
Oskar
