This will get you a bigger and prettier window to control, but it won't
get you the "local" display.

> to restart the vncserver (without rebooting) do a cntl+esc, find vnc and kill it. go to
> /tmp/X11-unix/ and delete "X1". go into a terminal and type: vncserver (optionally you can type
> "vncserver -geometry 1024x768" if you want to tell it what size you want on the client). now go to
> your windows box and start your client. you should get a kde gui now.
