I’m just new to Linux and am running a newly installed Ubuntu mate 17.04 (32 bit) in a VMware Workstation VM.
So far it looks really nice, and now I want to be able to run this VM from other computers in my home using VNC clients.
Looking for help in two areas:
One:
Am attempting to get tightvncserver to run so it shows up with the mate toolbars and menus to appear.
Currently I get only a grey background and the Welcome application working from my VNC clients, so it’s kind of working but I don’t get anything other then the Mate welcome application, without any visible toolbars so I’m unable to access any other apps.
At this point I am not overly worried about security as my Mate 17.04 VMware VM is only accessible on home network.
What I’ve done so far:
sudo apt-get install tightvncserver
Ran tightvncserver from terminal and setup passwords
vncserver :1 -geometry 1920x1080 -depth 24
Two:
I want to autostart the tightvncServer on boot after I get it working correctly.
What code do I need to add and where to add this code.
Thanks for any and all help
