Running VNC

[Ivan219]

Hello, I learned, that XRDP open a new session every remote connection. And then I learned that VNC do only one session. But I can't run it. I run in console:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install tightvncserver // No erros
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo vncserver :1 -geometry 1024×768 -depth 16 -pixelformat rgb565
vncserver: geometry 1024×768 is invalid //ERROR

I install UltraVNC Viewer, and typed to ip-box: ip_of_rasspberry:1 , But connection failed.
How resolve it?

Try 1024x768 (lower case letter X).

I resolve problem with resolution. I read instruction from: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... ccess/vnc/, I install and run VNC, but I can't connect to raspberry by tightvnc: error in tightvnc viewer a connection attempt failed because target computer rejected the connection, how connect to VNC?

I resolve VNC connect problem, but VNC make new session, and how I can make one (same) session? (For example: I control mouse from remote VNC and from mouse usb raspberry.

To control the desktop on the Raspberry Pi using VNC your best option is to use x11vnc, rather than tightvnc.

I install x11vnc, next I write: x11vnc -display :0 -usepw -noxdamage -ncache 10 -ncache_cr -listen IP_of_pi -allow allowed_ip_address
But I can't connect to raspberry by UltraVNC Viewer, I write: ip:0, but no connection. How resolve this problem?

Usually, when someone just posts "I solved it!" - with no details - it is because they realized they did something stupid and they just wish the whole thing would go away...

Sorry, that I did not write directly. I resolve problem with do all steps in instruction again, I think problem was that I close console window, and try to start VNC remote.
