uncompress the file using:

tar xvzf vnc-3.3.7.tar.gz

This will create a directory called bin/  - copy the files from this directory to /usr/bin and run vncviewer

the header on the davonz dir is misleading --

I have a script that will find .ipk files and make that header -- but that dir has a lot of other files that are not .ipk.
LD likes to make just the binaries -- it\'s quick and painless for the make, but it might require a little but more
attention when installing.  Many programs are \"installed\" by just putting them on the zaurus (in a location that you know, etc).
For instance, look at http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/chuckr (http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/chuckr) -- find, less, rsync, tcsh ... etc.  just plop them in /usr/bin, or
some other location (that is part of your path) ...

What about a VNC server for pdaX?  Has anyone ported one?
