VNC Server/Client setup for BB-xM

Hello All,

I have a BB-xM running with Ubuntu 12.10 . I am trying to connect it to my laptop with ubuntu 12.04 . I have serial connection established through a serial to USB connector . I also have a cross-wired ethernet cable connected from my laptop to the BB . I have x11 vnc installed in the BB . How do I enable Remote desktop connection from my laptop to the BB ? Also what are the IP configurations that have to be done? Thanks a lot for your time.

With regards,
Avinash
