    I didn't have much trouble setting up tightvnc on debian as I did on ubuntu like in my past post
    viewtopic.php?f=6&t=110&start=16

    ...however I just prefer x11vnc better than tightvnc.
    Here's how to do it on debian wheezy for those that are interested

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install x11vnc
    x11vnc -storepasswd
    
    enter a login password twice and save
    Code:
    cd .config
    mkdir autostart
    cd autostart
    
    edit home/.config/autostart/x11vnc.desktop
    Code:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Encoding=UTF-8
    Type=Application
    Name=x11vnc
    Comment=
    Exec=x11vnc -forever -usepw -httpport 5900
    StartupNotify=false
    Terminal=false
    Hidden=false
    
    save and restart and you should be able to vnc on port 5900, and I'd recommend setting static ip like my previous post.
