[Ubuntu 17.10] [Vino] Screen sharing in Kodi session is not working - ridmi - 2017-11-27
Hi,
I've recently installed Kody 17 Krypton on Ubuntu 17.10
and noticed that ubuntu build in screen sharing using vino is not working in kodi session.
The logs say vino-server.service is failed to start because "Connection refused Cannot open display:"
Any ideas/suggestions are much appreciated!
BR,
Dmitry

What about not to start Ubuntu in Kodi session? And start Kodi manually?

the ubuntu 17.10 default desktop uses wayland, which prohibits VNC from working.

But I was hoping to find out what is missing in Kodi session to have vino-server working.
