Appear to login to VNC, but screen is black with X cursor -- eventually times out and closes
Last modified: 2010-07-22 06:19:32 UTC
VNC, whether over ports 5901-5903 or 5801-5803, seems to login and I can't see any errors; however, it is a black screen with an X cursor. After a couple of minutes it times out and closes. See this thread for more details. This is a very common issue. http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/applications/442425-opensuse-11-3-vnc-black-screen-w-cursor-then-timeout.html
