rpi-4-debian-bookworm-6.1.54-rt15-arm64-ext4-2023-11-17-1731.img - TigerVNC? was created by rdtsc
Good day.  Installed tigervnc-standalone-server on title iso.  Lots of examples of how to install it, tried all, none worked.  Big issue here is the vncserver will not start.  Unsure if this is due to the windowing system or what.  Could get the server to start against /usr/bin/xfce-terminal, but viewer couldn't connect to it.

Has anyone gotten any remote-control software to work on this Debian Bookworm (aarch64) release?

Edit1: after booting the system today, the display goes black right when the logon prompt would appear.  Can SSH into it, and lo and behold, tigervncserver just worked!  Could remotely view it just fine.  However, no local display.  So reloading the .iso and trying again.

Edit 2: after retry, can confirm that vncserver will work, but only for root.  Here is as far as I've gotten:
sudo apt update  # note, have NOT updated any packages yet!
sudo apt install ssh tigervnc-standalone-server
vncpasswd  # this is for the cnc account only
sudo vncpasswd  # apparently this will allow root to login as well
vncserver -localhost no  # does not work, our cnc user
sudo vncserver -localhost no  # no error, but note this is root!
# try remotely connecting to the machine's IPaddress:5901

This was the bare minimum to get any sort of VNC connection to stay running.  Of course, not done yet, as the client window displays a big, fat Unable to contact settings server. Failed to execute child process "dbus-launch" (No such file or directory.)

Checking, package dbus-user-session is installed, but not dbus-x11.  Installed the latter, tried VNC again, and BAM, works!  Except that the root account is served.  Attempting (non-root) vncserver -localhost no gives the following:
cnc@raspberrypi:~$ vncserver -localhost no

New Xtigervnc server 'raspberrypi:1 (cnc)' on port 5901 for display :1.
Use xtigervncviewer -SecurityTypes VncAuth,TLSVnc -passwd /tmp/tigervnc.xtgF1d/passwd raspberrypi:1 to connect to the VNC server.

Session startup via '/etc/X11/Xtigervnc-session' cleanly exited too early (< 3 seconds)!

Maybe try something simple first, e.g.,
    tigervncserver -xstartup /usr/bin/xterm
The X session cleanly exited!
The Xtigervnc server cleanly exited!

Any ideas why the sudoed command would work, while the non-sudoed does not?

Here is the journalctl of a working (root) tigervnc startup:

Hmm, and there is no /dev/spidev0.0 and 0.1, so this .iso is unable to "see" the Mesa 7c80 card. Is there a way to enable it?

I'd love to, but `raspi-config` was replaced with `menu-config` on this .iso and spi enable is no longer available. Currently have two flash drives (one from last year with 2.9.0pre0 which won't update to 2.9.1 or later, and the titled .iso.) Just want the 7C80 to work with something... anything.

Peter's link also shows how to enable  by editing a text file. Note this file may be in a different folder.

Did you try
sudo apt-get install raspi-config

?

I'm not sure if it is compatible with our image. Some boot files are in subfolders

Tried to satisfy the grisly requirement of old Bullseye build `python << 3.8` to update 2.9.0; gave up, moved back to new Bookworm build.  

On current Bookworm, `config.txt` was in /boot/broadcom, enabled `dtparam=spi=on` and that seems to work, thank you.  Was then able to complete upgrading `linuxcnc-uspace (1:2.9.2) over (1:2.9.1)` successfully.  

Any chance we can try to get VNC working on it?  Not for everyday use; just for setup and configuration.  It would be much easier to work on the config from a workstation rather than the touchscreen. www.waveshare.com/product/raspberry-pi/d...5.6inch-hdmi-lcd.htm

I was playing around a month or so ago with a remote desktop login, once I read the docs I found out I couldn't do a remote login whilst logged at the physical console.

Can't for the life on me what remote server it was.

It was a long time ago but I did have XRDP running and was able to open the Pi in Windows RDP.
I tried briefly again with  no luck recently but did not stick with it.
There will most likely be some missing premissions
