Hi,
My uncle’s 13 year old pc has finally gone “pop”. (Windows 7).
I have bought him a Ras Pi 4 8Gb.
I am going to put Manjaro xfce on it ( I have used that a lot but now use i3 ).
I would like to ask you all for some advice, if you have the time, on the following :
What is the simplest way for me to remote control into his RasPi?
( Has to be very easy at his end, he is 81 and not very good with technology ).
Thanks.
Hi,
For the windows devices I use ultravnc.
For the linux os I use krfb and krdc , both kde software, user friendly, auto start on boot…
No problem to control windows with linux and vice versa.

Thanks @nl.smart , I will go and check out krfb and krdc.
You’re welcome, find below some help

And you’ll also need to set up a VPN to his router to get into his network (unless he lives in the same house as you). (It’s a function the router needs to provide, so off-topic here…)
