Well fellas here's the problem; I installed x11vnc and of course I wanted a password. So I did some searching and found this;

But it seems when I run the shortcut with Exec=/usr/bin/x11vnc -usepw -remap Return-KP_Enter I get a password error. So I started fooling around and in xTerm I experienced the same problem when running x11vnc -usepw but then I gained root and executed the same command, and it worked perfectly. I don't understand why I need to be root. The password is stored in /home/user/.vnc/passwd. Can anyone help me out, I figure I just need to set the shortcut to gain root before executing the command.

Thanks Fellas.

Sounds like a permissions problem. Run "ls -l /home/user/.vnc/passwd" and "ls -ld /home/user/.vnc" and you will likely see.

Just blow them away as root and then as your userid run "x11vnc -usepw" in a shell. You will be prompted to create a password. Then subsequent running of "x11vnc -usepw ..." as your userid will use that password.
