I am running Desktop Ubuntu 18.04.1 on a desktop computer, and have configured another user.

I checked the permissions on Xauthority, xinitrc, and they all seem fine. Additionally, I discovered that running vncserver with sudo fixes the black screen, without the need to exec startxfce4. deb files are made for 18.04 or when 1.9.x (or higher) is added to Ubuntu's repo, that this issue will just magically go away.įacing the same issue here, and I repeated all that you discussed in this thread and in #668.
#Tiger vnc viewer not connecting password#
I'll also try setting it so all local users require typing a password first. When I get a chance, I can try adding users to my test machine and see if I can get it to fail the same way.
#Tiger vnc viewer not connecting install#
The text machine is Xubuntu 18.04, and the projection machine is Ubuntu server 18.04 with the Xubuntu desktop added on top (sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop) because I wanted to use the server's install wizard to configure RAID. I repeated the same exact TigerVNC install process on my production machine, and when I connect I just get a black screen. On my testing machine, I was able to connect correctly. I tried the suggestion in and downloaded unpacked and moved to / I have a production machine (recently built and many hours of configuration have been put into it), so I tried things on a different machine I had sitting around first.
