I have tried 3 different resolution settings with no difference.
Well, the size of the vnc client window changes but the screen
remains black in all cases.
Again the odd thing is that the Welcome Window shows up for a
new user. So, if you can tell it to run a GUI app it seems it
will. It's just that the window manager doesn't seem to take
control to provide a way to allow you to start any GUI apps.

I am trying
to get Tiger VNC working on a home machine running Fedora 29
with latest patches applied.
I can connect and provide user's password but the screen is
blank.
On initial connection I got the Welcome Window that asked for
keyboard
style and such, but when I closed that window nothing but a
black screen
and that's all I get now when I log in. If I remove the user
and add her
back I get the Welcome Window again, but when that is done
again black
screen. Essentially there is no way to start an application
and nothing
setting the background. Seems the window manager isn't getting
control
or something.
I have:
Environment=XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11
In the /etc/systemd/system/vncserver-karen@.service file,
which some
sites have indicated may be needed. I have tried a couple of
combinations of the .vnc/xstartup I've seen from various
places, but am
back to the original:
#!/bin/sh
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
I have this working fine on a Fedora 29 machine at work. All
the files I
know of to compare I have and they seem the same, like the
ones
mentioned above.
I attached the output of "systemctl status
vncserver-karen@:2.service".
It looks like everything is started fine. I haven't found any
error
messages that seem to apply.
I saw some comments that selinux could be an issue. I have
selinux
disabled both in the /etc/selinux/config file:
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of
enforcing.
# disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
SELINUX=disabled
Also from command line I can see it isn't enabled:
$ getenforce
Disabled
The gnome-session-binary seems to be running according to
systemctl
output. I just don't know why it doesn't seem to be taking
control of
things.
Any pointers or suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks
Chris K
