Comment 73 for bug 31037

I was able to get this to work as well. I started the remote desktop server with system > preferences > remote desktop and checked the "share" box, then unchecked it by accident. The server originally gave indication that it could be connected to by going to one of the server's interfaces. When I re-checked the box, the vino process took up 99% of my CPU, and the server said that it was only accessible by localhost.

After reading through the bug to the very end, I saw that un-checking the share box, killing the process, and re-checking the share box worked for most people. That's what I did, and it worked for me.

I am running Ubuntu 10.04 x64
