The server monitors incoming HTTP connections via port 5800. Use your password that you created while installing tightVNC and voila! You have a shiny new NavQ Linux Desktop.Certain routers can cause you to have trouble trying to set up the ports properly, therefore TightVNC Server also contains a tiny webserver. For me the vncserver was hoste on port 5901 so I used imx8mmnavq::5091 to connect. To ensure that the VNC server will be able to use this new startup file properly, we’ll need to make it executable.Ĭonnect with proper credentials from the windows client.
We need VNC to start our desktop environment if it’s not already started. Now create a new xstartup file and open it in your text editor:Ĭommands in this file are executed automatically whenever you start or restart the VNC server. Before modifying make sure to backup the current file. Once everything is installed properly I configured the VNC server startup files to choose Xfce as the desktop environment by modifying the xstartup file. It takes a while (around 6-7 minutes for me) based on your internet connection speed. I will be working on getting more features enabled for this (such as viewing the camera in VNC using Gstreamer).įirst kill the already running vncserver using the following commands:Ĭhoose default (=N) for all the prompts that appear. This currently isn't the best solution for VNC, but it is a basic implementation at the moment. Put the password in and you should be connected! Here's a screenshot of the setup: Press enter and it should ask you for the password you created for tightvncserver. I would put the following into TightVNC Viewer: My NavQ IP is 192.168.0.47 and tightvncserver started IceWM on display :1. Once you open TightVNC Viewer on your windows machine, you will need to type in the IP address of your NavQ followed by the display opened by tightvncserver. You can use TightVNC Viewer on Windows ( Download TightVNC) to connect. Type in a password and it will start a VNC server with IceWM. It will ask you to enter a password for tightvnc.
$ sudo apt install tightvncserver xinit icewm To install tightvncserver, IceWM, and the necessary software, you can run the following command: IceWM is a lightweight window manager that works well with TightVNC. In order to run a TightVNC server on NavQ, you'll need to install an X11 window manager since the Demo image does not include one by default.
