Hi evrybody
I bought an unmanaged dedicated for 1 month, willing to learn something.
I would like to use centos remotely, using filezilla or browsing remotely with a normal GUI but, after Installing gnome & vnc on centos 5.7, connecting to it with tightvnc I see this:

I would like to see and use this:

I installed vnc, using this tutorial:
http://www.wjunction.com/48-technic...ling-remote-desktop-linux-vps-centos-5-a.html

Modified everything as it is on the tutorial.

Can somebody help me solve this problem?

Ubuntu is nicer if you can choose that instead of Centos.

I have actually been spending a few days installing several desktop environments on centos, ubuntu and suse myself. I followed this wiki: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server

suse uses too much memory, centos is too basic. ubuntu is the one i would use myself.

i am also going to buy unmaged VPS...... but i am very disappointed to see this :'(.........................

i like Cent 5 for kolxo :))............................... i am not expert in Linux commend so i prefer GUI and remote desktop
 
from looking at that file alone, it says your resolution is 80x24. Set it to 1024x768.

Either way, i would suggest following the tutorial i linked to, or at the very least, google "centos 5 vnc" and finding which one is easiest for you. You can even google "centos 5 vnc install script" if you prefer.
 
I like a friendly user interface desktop, don't kare if it's gnome, kde or other.
I just need some help to install it.
Tried every tutorial/script that I found, couldn't install vnc.
Is there somebody that can help me? for real.
