I'm a new user but just thought I'd provide a quick update on running DSLStats, I was running Wheezy but after reading through this thread it was apparent that upgrading to Jessie with Pixel would require less setup since VNC is baked in. I performed a clean install and once initially installed ran 'systemctl enable vncserver-x11-serviced.service' to run VNC server in service mode on boot, installed DSL stats and configured and it's up and running. For those wanting an easy ride - definitely the way to go.
