I need help to autostart VNCserver at bootup
(or any easy remotecontroller so i can manage Xmmp to play my music from network and listen to webradio)

VNC is DL:ed via MyDSL / Net / VNC4X-1.4.6.dsl.info

and i got 2 icons on the desktop...

is VNC running or do i need to configure ?

You'll probably want to change /home/dsl/.bash_profile to say "vncserver" instead of "startx".

I don't know anything about VNC, but you may start servers when booting from /opt/bootlocal.sh.

The difference here is that VNCserver starts an X session....you'll have a conflict, since .bash_profile also starts an X session when dsl logs in.

edit .xinitrc file and add
"/usr/local/bin/vnc4x0.sh &>/dev/null &" to that.
but this line must before "fluxbox 2>/dev/null" line.
