Re: [TurboVNC-Users] problem with TurbVNC and Ubuntu 24

['DRC' via TurboVNC User Discussion/Support]

I mentioned TVNC_USERDBUS in case you were using GNOME Classic, but that environment variable should not be necessary with plain (non-classic) GNOME. I will try to reproduce the issue, but I may not be able to. (This sort of issue tends to be system-specific and may not even be related to TurboVNC.) The best thing you can do to debug it is to try prior versions of TurboVNC. Try 3.1, then try 3.0.3, then 3.0, then 2.2.7. Stop as soon as you find a version that behaves either better or worse than the current version— that is, a version that either doesn’t exhibit the bug or exhibits a worse bug. (The version of GNOME in Ubuntu 24.04 may not work with TurboVNC 2.2.x, for instance.) What I’m looking for is some way to narrow down a specific version of TurboVNC that might have introduced the issue, which may give me a clue as to the feature that introduced it, which may give me a clue as to how to reproduce and fix it.

If I successfully connect without the -geometry options, the result of the command  wmctrl - m is GNOME Shell, so I guess GNOME is what I try to use with TurboVNC. I use the standard xstartup.turbovnc file in the folder /opt/TurboVNC/bin that is the same you can download from Github https://github.com/TurboVNC/turbovnc/blob/main/unix/xstartup.turbovnc. I've tried to put in the second line TVNC_USERDBUS=1 and connect with -geometry but without success. If you can explain me more in details which commands I have to use I can debug the problem. Thanks a lot! Andrea On Sunday, 22 December 2024 at 01:23:16 UTC+1 DRC wrote: That shouldn’t happen. Please answer my question regarding which window manager you are using.

I've tried to set the variable using the command  export TVNC_USERDBUS=1 before creating the display with  /opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver :2 -geometry 1440x900 but the problem still remains. I could solve it discarding the option -geometry 1440x900. Don't know why, but in the last versions I could set geometry without problems. Thanks again Regards Andrea On Friday, 20 December 2024 at 22:28:00 UTC+1 DRC wrote: Which window manager are you attempting to use?  I have tested GNOME, MATE, and Xfce under Ubuntu 24.04 with no issues.  There is a known issue with the GNOME Classic window manager on Ubuntu 24.04, however.  In order to use GNOME Classic/Ubuntu 24.04 with TurboVNC, you have to set TVNC_USERDBUS=1 in the environment, which limits you to one simultaneous session.
