============
KDE KRFB Wayland : Select what to share / New connection
Hi,
I'm very pleased & thankful for your effort.
Krdc and krfb are 2 nice kde product, with a fully GUI configuration !
2 new features appears with krfb on Wayland, "Select what to share" and "New
connection", good idea to improve the remote computer security, but not
practice for a home usage and remote the x86 or arm devices build for home
server without screen, keyboard and mouse.
With "Select what to share" and "New connection", I have to confirm the share
screen, but I can't because no screen, mouse and keyboard are plugged on my
devices running krfb on Wayland. Same issue on arm devices running Wayland.
X11 don't provide those features, I start krfb on X11 with the Autostart
software on startup and then I remote with krdc the devices sharing their
desktop with krfb on X11, really simple and practice.
How to avoid those new krfb Wayland features ? I mean the pop-up's showing
"Select what to share" and "New connection".
Is it a krfb on Wayland bug ? which don't take the function "Enable Unattended
Access", no issue like this with krfb on X11.
It will be great to use fully Wayland on the devices I manage with krfb.
As you know some Linux distro are now fully using Wayland.
Thanks for reading this post, no problem to provide more info, I stay tune.
edit : no problem with krdc on Wayland to remote windows 7 and 10 devices
(windows vnc sharing server -> ultra vnc 1.3.8.1)
no problem to remote a x86 Linux device sharing desktop with krfb on
Wayland, the Linux device is remote with an android vnc viewer => bVNC Secure
VNC Viewer 5.1.0
