I'm new to Linux, but very interested. After several false starts, I've finally gotten Knoppix V3.3 running on on my hard drive. Eveything seems to work well, and all hardware is detected. I guess I've been incredibly lucky so far, since I know very little about actually Using a Linux system.
I'd like to use VNC to access this machine remotely as I do with a Windows 2000 machine in the basement which houses my satellite DirecPC receiver.
I searched the Linux partition using KDE's find files application and it turned up several instances of files named Xvnc or similar. Does this mean that VNC is configured on this machine? If so, how do I start it?
If not, can someone give me a step-by-step on installing it (like where to put it and how to set it up and start it)? I did manage to get the realvnc package downloaded to the knoppix home directory, but I don't really know how to proceed from there.
Thanks,
JCH
