Please can someone point me to an up-to-date summary of using the default Bookworm VNC viewer with the default wayvnc?
"Read the manual" takes me to the manual page which says that the config file is under the users home folder which it isn't (I found it under /etc). "Read the documentation takes me to www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/os.html which only talks abut TigerVNC.
It seems to be working, and the true location of the config file explains why I can leave the headless Pi siting at the login screen, but I have no idea if there is any authentication or if I can stop it dropping the connection when logging off the remote Pi.
Or should I just carry on, be happy that the defaults work, and worry about instructions when they don't?
