Crusty geek. Retired software developer, aspiring musician. Used Unix way before it was cool. I'm in New York, but my heart is in Oregon. My cardiologist hates that. Once I built a pumpkin chucker. Another time, I built an LED cube. Interests: 3D printing and making in general, synths (playing and making them), learning the bass guitar (rock, jazz, funk), FPGAs and electronics, pinball. I spent 40+ years obsessively coding and studying computing, but that interest has finally cooled.

Right after the XDMCP class diagrams, there's a secton on VNC server support. lightdm has a VNC proxy delegator thing built in!
So fornicate systemd, I just need to add a stanza to lightdm's configuration to listen on port 5901 and call Xvnc. Which I did. And it worked in just a few tries. Success! Tuesday afternoon, maybe 10 hours after I started.
Rebooted a couple of times to verify it's really working, and it is. So now I can move on to the next thing.
