Hi,

Krfb (desktop sharing) is a nice vnc software develop by KDE, congratulations to the KDE dev.

I use krfb since 2019 without issue
with Wayland krfb don't start with the desktop short cut and don't start with the autostart, but launch with Konsole.

No issue with krdc (remote software)

with the command krfb it appears on the desktop

Code: Select all
[nls@nls-pc ~]$ krfb
Initializing D-Bus connectivity with XDG Desktop Portal
DBus session created:  "/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop/request/1_132/krfb3362328886"


krfb is launch, an action is needed, a pop-up never seen before appears
Select what to share, see below screenshot

The picture below is one I found on a forum to illustrate my case.
https://www.linuxquestions.org/question ... 1632768320

I click on share, the desktop is sharing

Code: Select all
[nls@nls-pc ~]$ krfb
Initializing D-Bus connectivity with XDG Desktop Portal
DBus session created:  "/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop/request/1_132/krfb3362328886"

I search a solution without success for the moment to launch the krfb desktop short cut and to launch krfb with autostart

How to avoid the "Select what to share" pop-up ?

any help will be appreciate, thanks in advance.

2022.08.05 : the desktop short cut is now working with wayland, thanks to the dev :-)
