[root tip] [How To] TigerVNC - LAN connection to SDDM at display :0

Mr Danish linux guru ( @linux-aarhus ) is not accepting messages so I post it here instead.


I saw you made a “root tip” on my sollution on vnc player, I’m honored. :smiley:

I’m starting to play around with wayland since that seems to become more and more useful even with an Nvidia gpu.

I got wayland working (and can change on the sddm login screen), but since my sddm still seems to run in x11 when I login it switches to another tty (seems to be quite random after I logout and login again, not always on #2)
I saw this Make SDDM itself run on Wayland and I will play around with it but it seems on the answers it won’t log on tty1 anyway (witch is kinda necessary with the method I used, and xorg)

Solution: switch to x11 on SDDM login (pamac install plasma-wayland-session if you don’t see the drop down menu in lower left corner) and the vnc method I use still works.

Maybe you should edit the “considerations” portion to mention this ONLY works on x11.

Keep up the good work! :smiley:
