VNC problem on Fedora

I am using vncserver on Fedora by typing the following command:
vncserver -depth 16 geometry 800x600
I can connect to this box from Windows using vnc or Ultravnc just fine except that when I connect I am in what I consider just a text mode....all I have is a terminal window open. I want to be able to see my real desktop just as if I were sitting right in front of the box itself.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? This is the vncserver that comes bundled with Fedora, I didn't add anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has been driving me crazy for 2 weeks now!!!

Read the docs for vnc, they tell you what file to edit to tell it what to startup inside the VNC session.

If you want to control the console X session you can't do that with base VNC, you need something like x0rfbserver.
