Hum well, but I'm running Xvnc on a QNX Realtime Platform so, it's a little
bit
different from a Linux installation/running.
I'll try to get some infos from the guy who make the port of vnc and Xfree!
Thanks a lot for your help Jeff,
Alain.

Okay, from your description, it is hard to pinpoint the problem.
If you have X installed and configured, you should be able to login
from a console and type 'startx' and get a GUI desktop. If that doesn't
work, then I can't say what it might be, unless your X configuration
isn't right. Have you run 'Xconfigurator' and verified that it is setup
correctly? The biggest problem I always have, especially if the Linux
install is not done via the pretty GUI install method, is determining
the right Xserver driver to run based on the chipset and I am definitely
not an expert in that area. You may play with Xconfigurator or monkey
with the XF86config (or XF86config-4 if running XFree86 v4.x) and look
at the driver in use. Two of my machines have S3 video chipsets, but I
had to run the "vesaReceived: from INET-PRV-MTA by prv-mail20.provo.novell.com
w" display driver to get it to work. The S3 driver
just threw errors and quit. I don't recall if the errors I saw were
similar to yours.
My understanding is that to get any GUI login running (local or remote)
you must have some version of a display manager running. Do 'ps -A |
grep dm' and you can tell what display manager is running.
Another note, the title of this e-mail is probably misleading. It
should be "vnc in -inetd mode". Display managers don't run in inetd
mode, they are their own daemon.
If you don't have a display manager running AND you have one installed,
you may also not be at the correct runlevel. I think most desktop
managers run at runlevel 5 (SuSe may have been different), anything else
and they have to be run manually. If you have one installed, look in
the init.d directory for the startup script. Mine is /etc/init.d/gdm.
Some systems put the scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d. If there is a ?dm
file, then start it up and see what happens. (example. '/etc/init.d/gdm
start') or change /etc/inittab (or equivalent and verify the default
runlevel is 5 (or whatever runlevel is required to get a GUI Xsession up
locally.)
Sorry for blabbering. Good luck.
Jeff

I use xdm, are you talking about DisplayManager.requestPort: 177 ?
Initially it was set to 0, I changed it to 177 but same problem.
Not sure that there is some relationship with my problem. My original
problem
concern but when I try to start X locally, I get:
_XSERVTransSocketINETCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed
_XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: server already running
Fatal server error:
Cannot establish any listening socket - Make sure an X server isn't
already
running.
But I have no X server already running!
Any idea?
Thanks,
Alain.
