From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312 Description of problem: To keep everyone from having to MODIFY startup scripts every time we install RH...PLEASE...oh PLEASE make this VERY SIMPLE change.... /etc/rc.d/init.d/vncservers Change the startup line to: "su ${display##*:} -c \"cd ~${display##*:} && [ -f .vnc/passwd ] && vncserver $VNCOPTIONS :${display%%:*}\"" We can then put VNCOPTIONS in /etc/sysconfig/vncservers PLEASE!!!!! This is WAY SIMPLE. There should be NO REASON for you not to comply with this request. This will take all of 2-1/2 seconds for someone to add to the distribution RPM. This just makes the product BETTER. Come on...this is too too simple. Yes I can do it EVERY time I install. But, you would look much better if I didn't. You should really honor these NON-IMPACT modification requests by your customers. Only makes you look better. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure /etc/sysconfig/vncserver 2. run "service vncserver start" 3. no way "out of the box" to specify vncserver parameters Actual Results: Be able to start the server with a specified screen size and color depth Expected Results: unable to start the server with a specified screen size and color depth without modifying the /etc/rc.d/vncserver script Additional info:
