How to: Restart vnc server for geordi

Trying to open a vnc window with geordi Show archive.org snapshot geordi vnc ended up with this error:

Copy> VNC viewer could not be opened:
vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused

Check if vncserver 17 (default geordi Show archive.org snapshot session) is running:

Copyps -aux|grep vnc

If you see Xvnc4 :17 then the server is already running. Kill this server if it is already running.

Copyvncserver -kill :17

Also make sure to remove the lockfile of the VNC server you just murdered:

Copyrm -f /tmp/.X17-lock

Geordi should start the server again when it needs it.
