I really wish Xvnc would use the same startup files as XFree86 does, then this kind of
thing wouldn't happen. Assuming you're using a Red Hat (or derivative) distribution,
symlinking ~/.vnc/xstartup to ~/.Xclients works for me:
[chromi@beryllium chromi]$ ls -al .vnc
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 chromi chromi 4096 Apr 25 01:21 .
drwx------ 30 chromi chromi 4096 Apr 24 04:59 ..
-rw------- 1 chromi chromi 8 Oct 3 2000 passwd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 chromi chromi 22 Jan 26 23:29 xstartup ->
/home/chromi/.Xclients
[chromi@beryllium chromi]$ cat .Xclients
#!/bin/bash
# Created by Red Hat Desktop Switcher
if [ -e "$HOME/.Xclients-$DISPLAY" ]; then
exec $HOME/.Xclients-$DISPLAY
else
exec $HOME/.Xclients-default
fi
[chromi@beryllium chromi]$ cat .Xclients-default
# Created by Red Hat Desktop Switcher
exec startkde
[chromi@beryllium chromi]$
This is with Red Hat 6.2 and KDE 1.1.2 (a little out of date).
