    good afternoon,

    I'm following the tutorial the VNC server on the page of ubuntu, but when I give a start in rc.local I get this message

      vncserver: Wrong type or access mode of / home / ubuntu / .vnc.


    how can I solve this problem?

    Att, Leandro

    I assume you already performed the tightvncserver install step? If you are logged in via SSH and type "vncserver", it should start up the server process and say "new X desktop is udoo:1". Does that happen correctly?

    had the same problem. now i use xRDP. works every time - even after reboot. found this how2:
    http://www.unixmen.com/install-xrdp-in-ubuntu-13-04/.
    gnome desktop:applications internet desktop sharing - allow to view desktop.
    windows: i use : vnc viewer

    to configure xrdp.ini: nano /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini
