 I've tried three VNC viewers (tight, real and ultra) none of them can agree "security types" to get a working connection.
 I've tried disabling encryption using
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.remote-desktop.vnc encryption "['none']"
 Still no go, I'd rather not setup a whole vnc-server and dick about with launching new X/wayland/xRDP sessions, just stealing/sharing the GUI session from the console would suit me best.
 Any suggestions that just work?
 

I'm using Ubuntu 24.10, Gnome-47, wayland. RDP works. However, I think this is a recent thing. So probably not applicable to you.
In the past, I've used NoMachine, which I don't like as much as RDP, but it is useable.
