how to connect with vncserver i tried with localhost but it is only showing grey screen and a mouse cursor
★★★★★
Okay got vnc working but... /usr/bin/xterm: unable to reset uid. Meaning, I am unable to launch terminal making it pretty impossible to use this app. Any ideas? Edit: my kernel is the problem (works on other kernels fine) sadly I'm I have to remain with incompatible kernel.

Amazing App. This app, together with the apps GNUroot and VNC Viewer, allows you to install a complete and fully usable Wheezy Debian Linux system on your Android phone, including X, which provides a graphical user interface with the window manager of your choice.

Great but... I really loved it a GNU/linux enviroment on android with a working apt-get!!!Just one thing can you add something so when you close the window it automatically kills the X server thanks

How do I connect via VNC viewer? Can you please give me some instructions? These would be handy for others like me who are not experts. Thanks!

We need real root, not fake one Can't launch xterm (setuid error), can't launch any other term prog (/dev/pts permission errors) and can not sudo (sudo uid needs to be root=0). All because of silly "proot" workaround. Some of us do have rooted phones u know?!
★★☆☆☆
Does not work on Sony Xperia M2 I installed gnuroot and and Debian wheezy, okey, it does not open any terminal windows. So I installed a terminal emulator. It still does not open a terminal when I install rootfs. Anything I am doing wrong? I do tick "launch as fakeroot" because I do not have a rooted device.
