Public bug reported: Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu Focal Fossa Package version: 1:3.36.1-1ubuntu4 Expected: Using Screen sharing as expected and often used before Result: Screen sharing is disabled and can't be reenabled
I have checked the system logs and found this entry: gnome-control-c[223776]: couldn't list networks: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Invalid service name 'vino-server' Then I have tried to reinstall the vino package in case that something broke in the update yesterday. This did not help so I tried executing the binary manually and this worked: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server 09/04/2020 10:16:55 Autoprobing TCP port in (all) network interface 09/04/2020 10:16:55 Listening IPv6://[::]:5900 09/04/2020 10:16:55 Listening IPv4://0.0.0.0:5900 09/04/2020 10:16:55 Autoprobing selected port 5900 09/04/2020 10:16:55 Advertising security type: 'TLS' (18) ... (shortened) The problem might be something related to DBus but I'm not shure.
