I have Ubuntu Server LTS 14.04 and I want to know whether it's possible to install vnc4server and make it work with ubuntu-desktop (and not xubuntu-desktop) without installing xfce4.



I think I have to configure the vnc4server configuration file but I'm a beginner with all this.



Please, don't suggest that I use xrdp or gnome-core. I just want to run a VNC Server using only the original ubuntu-desktop installation. I use VNC Viewer to connect to my servers, but I don't have any problem with suggestions that I use something different than vnc4server if it's going to work with ubuntu-desktop.
