Beginners • Re: Before I buy a Pi5

But just to report that I have an RPi[5]-4G running 64-bit RasPiOS Bookworm and I can use 'classic' (ie. NOT RPi-Connect) VNC to bring up my RasPiOS GUI Desktop on a Windows 10 'wintel' desktop PC. I am typing this reply in a browser window generated by my RPi[5], using the keyboard on the Win10 desktop.

I can do this using the RealVNC viewer client, or the TigerVNC viewer client. (The latter is what Raspberry Pi mention in their own documentation.) Ref: Screen share with VNC - https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... s.html#vnc

So I can't confirm your finding that 'VNC is "broken" in terms of incompatibility with wayland'. For me it is a viable option for working with machines on my own LAN.
Thanks !

Please, I wonder what magic you weaved ...
Did you have to revert to x11 rather than wayland ?
Or did it work "out of the box" for you ?
Since you mention that RPi mention TigerVNC in their own documentation, I'll look for that and give it a whirl (RealVNC's website seem not to mention a working method other than x11 and "we're working on it", and the forum here seems to indicate and ongoing challenge from the few posts I came across).
