Yesterday afternoon when a hostus Netizen wants to install the desktop environment in the purchase of the VPS host to run the software project, in fact, many of our users are accustomed to the VNC desktop, after all, in the Linux server can not go to install Windows system, In particular, the hostus of the OPENVZ architecture is not supported, and some businesses, such as vultr KVM Architecture, can customize the installation of the Windows system.

Here I suggest he installs the DEBIAN7 environment system, then installs the GNOME desktop, this is also more common, below I will record the entire installation process, perhaps some friends also have the need.

First, update the system version

Apt-get Update
Apt-get Upgrade

We log in to the already installed DEBIAN7 environment, then update the system source, the need to continue to enter the Y when the return can be.

Second, Android GNOME desktop software

Apt-get-y Install Gnome

Third, install the necessary font files

Apt-get-y Install xfonts-100dpi xfonts-100dpi-transcoded xfonts-75dpi xfonts-75dpi-transcoded xfonts-base

These fonts must be installed, or log on to the desktop after we see may be garbled.

IV. Installing the TIGHTVNC server

Apt-get Install Tightvncserver

After installation we can set the password and log on to the desktop for use.

V. TIGHTVNC Suspension of work

VI. Edit the ~/.vnc/xstartup file

#!/bin/shxrdb $HOME/. Xresources
Xsetroot-solid Grey
X-terminal-emulator-geometry 80x24+10+10-ls-title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
# X-window-manager &
Gnome-session &

Replace all the contents of the inside with the above.
