Remote desktop?

Ja, es ist ein anderer Computer, aber das Dokument gibt an, genau diesen Inhalt einzugeben, und gibt nicht an, was die Felder bedeuten. Soll ich in dieser Zeile die externe IP des Servers eingeben?

Womƶglich - das hƤtte ich zumindest vermutet.
Wie gesagt: ich kann hier nicht wirklich was beitragen.

Ich bin für jede Hilfe dankbar. Ich habe es mit der externen IP versucht und es passiert das Gleiche.

Update: It is working now. It’s almost like it needed some time to load or something.

Update 2: I spoke too soon, I can now see the desktop but it is not responding at all.

A polite reminder: Please don’t switch languages mid-thread! :wink:

I only did it because he did it. I don’t even understand German.

I’m not blaming anyone. :smiley:

It’s just that it seems to happen a fair few times on these Forums! :wink:

I know enough German to more-or-less know if a translator is actually getting it right. Not everyone has this ā€œadvantageā€! :smiley_cat:

I’d speak in Chinese if it helped me right now.

My bad.
Again.
I didn’t even notice the switch - it felt seamless, the response to my german was perfect and I didn’t notice.
Until now.

I shall be (even more) vigilant.

Sorry - I really didn’t notice.

Please - if your previous setup failed - undo it - that means disable services and remove configurations.

If you are able to - you can also compare this guide to your current setup

I have done this so many times - I know it work as expected.

I suggest you stay away from assigning users to :1, :2 and :7

display :1 is used by greeter
display :2 is used by plasma (systemd default)
display :7 is usually used by desktop (following older tradition)

You can verify if the display is used by switching to the relevant TTY using CtrlAltF-num

I’m amazed by people who can even speak two languages. My mother tongue is all I have.

I’m fluent in 3:

  • English;
  • Afrikaans; and
  • sh17. :wink:

I know that one - no matter the language - it is unspeakable to foreigners …

Wait - do you keep that in jar? :grin:

Jokes aside

This is a working recipe - guaranteed

For me it was opportunity as well as necessity.
The opportunity was to spend a few months in the US of A with basically everything being paid for in exchange for some lifeguard duty in a Scout camp.
The necessity was that I needed to survive - no one there was speaking or understanding my language, so I had to learn, and fast :wink:

Immersion is the most effective way to learn.
But not everyone has the desire or need to do it.
And that’s o.k.

Ok these steps worked. I think the main place I was going wrong is that through the various iterations I only connected to port 590x when vncserver wasn’t starting for some reason, so I thought I shouldn’t specify a port because port 5900 was connecting. But now I understand that was never going to work. So maybe a lot of my steps worked along the way but I was connecting to 5900 instead of my display port.

Then I was having trouble using lxde as a session instead of xfce. It seems in Manjaro the config file must indeed be in $HOME/.config/tigervnc instead of in $HOME/.vnc as specified by the most recent instructions.

Anyway it works now, thank you for your help.

Great …

Yes - one has to adapt the content - I will think of revising to use xfce.

Hmm - do you mean you had to adapt something ? I would like a heads up - rechecking for xfce 4.20 and latest tigervnc.

When I start vncserver from the command line it uses ~/.vnc/config as specified in the instructions. But when it is started with systemctl, then it uses ~/.config/tigervnc/config. This was my experience.
