Steps to Install Desktop Environment(GNOME) and VNC server

GNOME and VNC SERVER Installation

To install VNC just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command below.

#sudo apt-get update

To install the core components of gnome, use this command:
#sudo apt-get install gnome-core

To install a virtual desktop, use this command:
#sudo apt-get install vnc4server

In order to use VNC, we need to setup a password using the following command:
#vncserver

To make a tweak in startup script, we need to kill the session that we just created:
#vncserver -kill :1

Now open up the file that we need to edit:

To Install Nano Editor:
#sudo apt-get install nano

#cd ~
#nano .vnc/xstartup

Code:

And Modify the file so it looks like this:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
#exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
gnome-session --session=gnome-classic &

[ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
vncconfig -iconic &
#x-terminal-emulator -geometry 1280x1024+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
#x-window-manager &

- Next, create the VNC Session once more:
#vncserver -geometry 1024x600

Now, download VNCViewer onto our desktop computer from which we want to access the shared desktop. Connect using ServerIP:1 (:1 is for the VNC server window).
