vncserver not providing gnome desktop

[Robert Moskowitz]

Progress made.  In the end I had to get IPv4 addressing working, as VNC 
only understands IPv4.

I am connecting over the crossover cable to the headless system via vnc, 
but the screen just shows the little action box on the upper left and 
nothing else.

I have edited the service file and added the geometry line option and 
reloaded the deamons.  No change.

I edited the xstartup file as I always do to exec gnome, but nope.


I am missing something here.  Obviously...

any tips are greatly appreciated.
