How to use VNC to share the desktop on openSUSE 16 with XFCE-Wayland?
I’m not using XFCE, but AFAIU wayvnc is designed for wlroots-based Wayland compositors (such as labwc). I think that is the compositor that is in use?
I used wayvnc, but I can’t see the actual desktop displayed on the monitor. Instead, it opens a separate desktop/session.
How did you start it?
From within the active session show
echo "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY"
echo "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR"
If echo "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" returns something like wayland-1
then wayvnc (run as user) should connect to that socket.
If that works as expected you can create a custom systemd user service to make sure it is active during the session.
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
Ok, and please also answer my question about how you started wayvnc.
