Hi

   Managed to get x11 to boot in latest armbian desktop Ubuntu gnome build

x11vnc runs when manually running it fine

but how many tutorials I have followed online it refuses to start as a service (auto)

always gets bad access error when trying to get xauthority I guess ,even when I point it to the .xauthority files with -auth

and used -auth guess 

tried all theses 

Tutorial 1

Tutorial 2

Tutorial 3

plus videos on YouTube 

has anyone got vnc to run on orange pi zero 3 Ubuntu noble gnome desktop From here

at start up on x11?

thanks

 

Check that the environment lines, plus the execstart from the service file, do what you want from “root”, since the service does not specify a user
 

or specify your user, and try it with your user

 

see what shows up with “journalctl -u x11vnc” (log)

 

Here's another x11vnc server istructions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/X11vnc
