I have installed i3 (from debian backports, version 4.2), tightvncserver and xorg on a VPS. I have tried adding either i3 or startx to ~/.vnc/xstartup. I am greeted with a blank grey screen upon VNC login.
What steps have I missed?
I just reproduced your steps and got the following in VNCs log:
sh: /home/sur5r/.vnc/xstartup: Permission denied
So
chmod +x ~/.vnc/xstartup
should solve your problem.
