Hello,

I did nearly the same as here
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/25/html/System_Administrators_Guide/ch-TigerVNC.html#s3-configuring-vnc-server


by the way this
ExecStart=/sbin/runuser -l USER -c "/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1280x1024"

must be
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1280x1024

because the 'runuser'-variant doesn't work at all, no connection possible from
VNCviewer;

or is there also something missing in the SELinux policies?

the -geometry parameter is ignored, I only get a display of 1024x768 when
connecting with VNCviewer from other machine ...

FWIW.....

My /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service contains...

ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1920x1080

The running process shows....

egreshko   839     1  0 11:01 ?        00:00:03 /usr/bin/Xvnc :1 -geometry 
1920x1080
-auth /home/egreshko/.Xauthority -desktop f25f.greshko.com:1 (egreshko) -fp
catalogue:/etc/X11/fontpath.d -httpd /usr/share/vnc/classes -pn -rfbauth
/home/egreshko/.vnc/passwd -rfbport 5901 -rfbwait 30000

how do you get this output?

And when I connect via vncviewer from another system I get the following output 
from
xrandr

    800x600       60.00
    640x480       60.00

I also happen to set my ~/.vnc/config file to that geometry as a habit.

xrandr only shows

/etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
has this
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1600x1200

and ~/.vnc/config
has this
geometry=1600x1200


why?

the goal is either 1600x1200 or 1280x1024, the default 1024x768 is too small

Thanks,
Walter

and still connected with 1024x768 ... even when setting SELINUX to permissive
