Simple way Windows uses VNC Viewer to access Ubuntu 14.04 Remote Desktop

Recently upgraded from 11.10 to 14.04, the VNC viewer, which used to be real vnc, directly visited Ubuntu's remote Desktop and was found to be useless after the upgrade. Search on the Internet, the basic is that 14.04 of the desktop and VNC incompatible, need to install a different desktop, there are said Gnome, but also said Xfce, according to a messy tutorial, but only to see a black and white desktop, plus a command line terminal, the icon or anything can not see.

The first time you actually see the desktop is the Xfce desktop, refer to Windows 7 Remote Desktop Connection Ubuntu 14.04

There are two issues:

1, it opens is a brand-new desktop, differs from the original style;

2. A new window instance will be reopened for each successful connection. That is to say, if you connect successfully and run a few tasks, and then you close the Remote Desktop, again connected to find, presented to you is a new desktop, the last run of the program you can not find back; This is the case on my PC, I don't know how other people are.

The easiest way for me to refer to: "Windows Remote Desktop Connection Ubuntu 14.04 Illustration Setup Tutorial"

1. Set up Ubuntu system to allow remote control

It is found that this step can also be done directly in the 2nd step of Dconf-editor.

2, the Operation Dconf-editor, note must use the current user to run, cannot add sudo

$ dconf-editor

Expand Org->gnome->desktop->remote-access Sequentially

Remote control options can also be set directly here, but it is important to remove the "requre-encryption".

If you don't want to click on Ubuntu for every remote login, take care to remove the promotion-enabled option.

3. Back to Windows, run VNC Viewer, enter Ubuntu address, all OK
