Hey,

I’d like to run a desktop in VNC and open GUI browsers like Firefox in it.

I succeeded in setting up the VNC server but after installing Firefox,
Chromium and Chrome I find they don’t open when I launch them.

Is this because I am root user?

Is it just because you should always run browsers as non-root?

Thanks very much,
Julius
