Wadeidk, was trying to make regular vnc work with tight and tigervnc Jan 26 15:48
Wadethey all failedJan 26 15:49

Wadeso i tried to connect to that with various apps on windows and it failed regardless of what port i chose or using one or two : colonsJan 26 15:49
schestowitzmaybe change to another protocolJan 26 15:50
Wadei would not mind doing rdp, really any not tortured way to get screen sharing on the local network would be fineJan 26 15:50
Wadedebian 11.2 with gnome is what i'm afterJan 26 15:50
Wadedebian installer is currently overwriting the boot ssd with zeros to cover up my previous bunglingJan 26 15:51
schestowitzi see...Jan 26 15:51

techrights-newsThe #corporatemedia , looking to appease its major sponsors (such as Web/advertising giants), won’t tell you that #GeminiProtocol is rising very rapidly; its userbase and the tools available for users are rapidly improving while more and more groups, institutions and individuals set up their own capsule (equivalent of a Web site) http://techrights.org/2022/01/26/2000-known-gemini-capsules/Jan 26 15:55
Wadeall i need it to do is for basic shit, schestowitzJan 26 16:15
Wadevnc has worked for my rpi 4 since 2019 is why i was trying to use itJan 26 16:15
Wadeneeds to be wife friendlyJan 26 16:15
Wadeso she can do the systemd shutdown and restart of game servers and update them via steamcmdJan 26 16:15
Wadeis not like we're trying to go over the wan, it's literally just down the hall a few metersJan 26 16:19
psydroid4this is one of the things that is really lacking when it comes to remote graphical accessJan 26 16:19
Wadeit works fine on the rpi :/Jan 26 16:20
psydroid4vnc should work fine for that, if you are on a fast local networkJan 26 16:20
Wadeand gnome seems to have built in screen sharing with an address to go toJan 26 16:20
Wadeyes is gigabit no wirelessJan 26 16:20
Wadeall on a big 24 port l2 switchJan 26 16:20
Wadebut when i try to paste the gnome's vnc://debian.local into any windows vnc software it failsJan 26 16:21
Wadesame failure if i append :5900, ::5900, :5901, ::5901, same deal with 5902 et al until 5910Jan 26 16:22
Wadetutorials seem to all start with no desktop environment installed but since i have gnome installed following the directions doesn't work because it interferes somewhere with gnome already installedJan 26 16:23
psydroid4I would use something like tightvnc or tigervncJan 26 16:24
Wadei think maybe they using gnome flashback or something maybe that doesn't have the built in vncJan 26 16:24
Wadei tried those first before i learned gnome had it's own screen sharing and it didn't work eitherJan 26 16:24
psydroid4these built-in vnc servers have always been somewhat unreliable for meJan 26 16:24
Wadeall the tuts start from no DE/term onlyJan 26 16:25
Wadei just want to share the same x window that i already have not another oneJan 26 16:25
Wadeis this impossible or very difficult to achieve?Jan 26 16:25
Wadeidk, never had a monitor connected to the pi beforeJan 26 16:26
Wadeinfernal microhdmi can rotJan 26 16:26
psydroid4it's never worked well enough for me to rely on it, so you may have to look into it yourselfJan 26 16:26
Wadewhat do you use to remotely administer your debian?Jan 26 16:26
Wadeor any other distroJan 26 16:27
psydroid4I do everything over ssh, but if I needed a GUI I would just start a VNC server as I said beforeJan 26 16:28
Wadeyes, i tried to do the latter 4 times without successJan 26 16:28
Wadethe tuts i found all start with no DE installed so the instructions are wrong, when I try to run it it fails within 1sJan 26 16:28
psydroid4this is in my xstartupJan 26 16:29
Wadeyes in that file there be dragons for meJan 26 16:29
psydroid4in the .vncJan 26 16:29
psydroid4directoryJan 26 16:29
Wadethe tuts say to change the directory, group, and username so i do thatJan 26 16:30
Wadebut still no joyJan 26 16:30
psydroid4https://paste.debian.net/1228466/Jan 26 16:30
psydroid4I've never needed to do thatJan 26 16:31
Wadethere were two styles of tutJan 26 16:31
psydroid4but yes, you can start such a VNC server on startup from rc.local or whatever is the startup script these daysJan 26 16:31
Wadei tried one like yours and another that was as i described both failed on clean installations with gnomeJan 26 16:31
psydroid4let me see if I can actually connect to it nowJan 26 16:31
Wadethe kids seem to use systemd services to achieve start on boot these daysJan 26 16:31
psydroid4I haven't tried for a year or two nowJan 26 16:32
Wadei have some time to develop a plan of attack because i had the debian installer zero out that ssd so i can start fresh with the new 12TB disks in an array this afternoonJan 26 16:33
Wadei'd like to be able to get vnc or rdp or similar working so that i can setup these game servers and get the transfer of all the plex shit startedJan 26 16:33
Wadefrom my nice ergonomic workstation instead of standing in the server roomJan 26 16:34
Wadewithout putting another hole in the wall to run a 15' hdmi cable to itJan 26 16:34
Wadethis seems reasonable to me :/Jan 26 16:35
Wadewould have to order more 3 meter usb 3.0 extension cables tooJan 26 16:36
psydroid4I'm installing some components on my debian 11 installs to see if I can get it to workJan 26 16:41
psydroid4https://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Debian_11&p=desktop&f=6Jan 26 16:46
psydroid4this works for meJan 26 16:46

psydroid4Wade, I'll have a look at that, thanksJan 26 21:27
Wadeyou're welcomeJan 26 21:28
Wadeinstalled debian with kde plasma instead so hopefully that one doesn't have built in vncJan 26 21:29
Wadeall the systems involved are grossly overpowered for this useJan 26 21:29
psydroid4I'm surprised with how smooth things run with Mate, both here on my laptop with a potato Intel processor and on my Orange PiJan 26 21:33
psydroid4yes, that's been my issue tooJan 26 21:35
Wadewrt gnome and vnc?Jan 26 21:35
