I don't have KDE, Gnome, or the X window system installed. Are the X
window components necessary in order to run VNC? I just want to be
able to connect and have full control over a system w/ VNC. Telnet
doesn't allow access to some of the system commands, whereas VNC is
like you're actually at the terminal.
