Also, kde won't work since you did not install it on your 6.x box. #!/bin/sh gnome-session & Another thing, I forgot to check, you are killing your vnc server and restarting it each time you change your xstartup, correct? Just disconnecting and reconnecting a vncviewer will not change the running server, and sometimes people who are not familiar with vnc get confused on that point, so I just thought I'd ask (to be safe).
