# Installation instructions popOS
## VNC access
An alternative that worked at least once today in the morning:
install x11vnc
then port-forwarding to get to localhost on remote:
ssh -C -f -L 5900:localhost:5900 markus@murano
start x11vnc on remote (I had to get DISPLAY: ":1" instead of the
default ":0")
x11vnc -safer -localhost -nopw -once -display :1
then I use remmina to connect to localhost:5900
This gives me the control over the session that is running on my PC at
the CBS. Actually it displays the full desktop, i.e. in my case both
monitors next to each other.
