Raspberry Pi OS • Re: VNC on Raspberry Pi 5

Tested what?

VNC as is no longer works on a Raspberry Pi 5 because of Wayland. I was wondering if anyone with a Raspberry Pi 5 has tested the workaround suggested by RealVNC.

In any case I will know for sure when I hopefully get a Raspberry Pi 5 in the next couple weeks.

wayvnc is not even alpha level stability, it crashes on second use, sometimes even on first CONSTANTLY
tigervnc on a mac is so bad, slow and cant control screen size.

I did as follows

sudo apt-get --purge remove wayvnc
sudo raspi-config <----- switch to X11
reboot
sudo apt install ./VNC-Server-7.7.0-Linux-ARM64.deb
sudo systemctl enable vncserver-x11-serviced.service
sudo systemctl start vncserver-x11-serviced.service
sudo systemctl status vncserver-x11-serviced.service
sudo raspi-config <------ enable VNC server, for good measure
reboot
