Hi
It was a headache but I solved it.
First you must install x11vnc
then create a password using

Code: Select all

x11vnc -storepasswd
Finally go to [$HOME]/.config/Autostart
and create shortcut and name it X11VNC.desktop

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Name=X1VNC
Comment=
Exec=x11vnc -forever -usepw -httpport 5900
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
Hidden=false
To access your desktop just use any vncviewer directing to your IP and type your password
I hope this had help you
