Good morning

I just started with BBB, and I have Debian OS inside the board. I want to remotely access the board using VNC viewer. I entered BBB using ssh in puTTY.

i have used the following commands

apt-get update

apt-get upgrade

apt-get dist-upgrade

apt-get install x11vnc

after this i got errors, i think it is not installed correctly. can anyone help me?
