Will update thread with pictures, neater layout, etc etc in the near future. For now, below is the simply run through (commands below are entered after logging into your VPS via a shell client such as 'putty')
Notes: Any lines marked with # are simply notes. Do not type these lines as commands, simply take note of them and continue downwards with the commands below it.

Create an SH script for starting OSBot on your desktop
nano /root/Desktop/OSbot.sh
java -jar osbot*.jar
^x
y
*enter*
Congratulations! You have now setup VNCserver with kdepim, firefox.
Simply connect to your server via VNC (I personally use UltraVNC viewer)
The next step is installing java. Now, you could simply use "yum -y install java", though this would install an outdated version of java and would not run OSBot correctly.
Installing Java
Installs the latest version
Step 1: nevigate to www.java.com and find the latest java download as an RPM Step 2: Download the RPM, saving it to your desktop. Step 3: Click to rename the RPM once it's download, though instead of actually renaming it simply copy the current name (^c / right click, copy)
Step 4: open a terminal/konsole (right click desktop - konsole)
Step 5: Type the following command
rpm -rvh (right click - paste)
As long as this doesn't give any errors, you should now have an updated version of JRE installed.
Downloading OSBot
The next step is simply downloading OSBot. This is the same as on all operating systems. Step 1: Go back to firefox and nevigate to http://osbot.org/get/index.php
Step 2: Save the file to your desktop.
Congratulations! You now have OSBot installed.
Starting OSBot: Step 1: Open konsole/terminal/shell (skip if already open)
Step 2. If [~/Desktop] # is not shown, type (if shown, skip step):
cd /root/Desktop
Step 3: type the following command in konsole/terminal/shell
sh osbot.sh
**Warning** delete/move *ALL* older versions of OSBot from your desktop after updating **Warning**
**Warning** The sh script will open any it sees on your desktop, including older versions **warning**
