I'm having trouble getting vncserver to run on the dns-323 with Debian/Etch. I understand the 323 has no "display" per se. My ultimate goal is to run DVarchive server to stream video to my Replay TV. The vncserver would be used a virtual frame buffer and act as a fake screen making it think its running on a normal screen without the actual video hardware.
I'm trying to follow some instructions for getting this to run from a Buffalo Kurobox NAS page and hopefully have it work for the DNS-323:
http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.ph … stallation
But the link to install VNC on that page is dead.
Here's the error messages:
root@dlink-C8F236:/home/dvarchive# vncserver

I can actually connect to the server using TightVNC on my pc, however, nothing happens, just a blank vnc window. Any ideas on how to get this running?
Thanks!

OK, I'm making some progress. The "bad display name" went away when I defined the host name for the display in the /etc/hosts file.
Still have the Xalloc error in the vnc log:

Anyone have any ideas? I can connect to the server using TightVNC, but all I see is a grey window with nothing in it. Not sure how to properly test this.
Thanks.

You can also try tightvncserver, I remember need to install a couple of xfonts file, and also your favorite window manager. (I'm using lenny armel on HP mv2120, should not be very different)
I have the following in ~/.vnc/xstartup
$ cat .vnc/xstartup #!/bin/sh # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: # unset SESSION_MANAGER # exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey x-window-manager &

Hi, thanks for the reply. Hmm, still having the same problem. I tried to get tightvncserver, but it doesn't look like it is for etch.
Also, I tried installing lenny, but I think I have something incorrect. How do you bootstrap lenny from another linux box? This is what isn't working:
$sudo cdebootstrap -aarm lenny lenny ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian
E: Unkonwn suite lenny
Any ideas on how to install lenny on the DNS-323??
Thanks.
