General discussion • Trying to get VNC to work on Pi 5/Bookworm

$

Does anyone have instructions on how to install either TightVNC or TigerVNC Server on both Bookworm and Ubuntu Desktop for a Pi 5 that actually work. I must say that working with OS's like Bookworm and Ubuntu on the Pi 5 has frustrated me to the point of almost taking a hammer to the damn thing. After hundreds of fruitless searches to try and get either one to work at all and then startup as a service has me tearing out my hair, especially when I end up corrupting the OS and need to reinstall it.

List of problems, won't connect, gives me the wrong display and refuses to change, service never starts upon reboot, RealVNC has to be restarted .in raspi-config/Interfaces after every restart but at least I can connect to it after that, cannot connect to RealVNC with other viewers even after following instructions on how to change that. RealVNC trial has run out and I don't know if that's why it's not working.

Thanks in advance
