VNC Server and Linux Mandrake 7.1 Problems

[sinck@ugive.com]

\_ Hello All!
\_ 
\_ I'm having a problem with VNC Server working on Mandrake 7.1  I've tried
\_ installing from RPMs, the ATT binaries and source, and nothing seems to
\_ work.
\_ 
\_ My problem is this:  When i start the vncserver program it loads up, but
\_ when i connect to my server nothing is there (just a checker pattern)  The
\_ log file shows this:

The checker pattern is the default root background hashing pattern if
you don't give X some other command.  Normal.

As for not connecting:
1) try launching an app during X startup
2) try xhost
3) rtfm?
