On the ubuntu laptop i have configured the remote desktop to allow connections. Then on the laptop i can open remote desktop viewer and connect to the same laptop using just the ip and i get to see my screen (like a loop).

Then on the n900 using either presence vnc or vnc viewer i cant connect. I start up presencevnc from xterm and connect to just my ip address, it then has the loading symbol for a couple of minutes and i get the following output:

Code:

/home/user # presencevnc
Maemo applications must be run with the run-standalone.sh script!
QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.
--------------------- trying init ---------------------
"ConnectToTcpAddr: connect"
"Unable to connect to VNC server"
about to quit
"Server not found."

Am i missing doing any sort of config on the n900? Am i doing something stupid?

My first time trying to vnc to ubuntu.
