Once lightdm is installed go ahead and restart your computer and log back in. sudo apt install lightdmĭuring the installation you will be prompted to choose which login manager you want to use. Apparently the default gdm3 login manager has problems with VNC and so a solution is to change it out for an alternative called lightdm. However, one step that is needed is to change the default login manager. This step is completely unnecessary if you are already running a desktop version of Ubuntu. Due to that they’ll often have you start by installing a desktop environment like xfce. If you’re like me, when you start searching for a solution to enabling VNC on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop you’ll find that most answers are actually written with the assumption that you are running the server version of the distro instead. This is for a variety of reasons but I’m going to skip over all of that and get right into how to make it work! Initial Setup
If you’ve ever wanted to access your Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop remotely (and securely!) you may have come to the conclusion that it isn’t as simple as it maybe once was.
