    Just for completeness sake, the usual way of accessing a server is over SSH, using the console. That would be openssh-server on the pi and openssh-client on the laptop.

    Also, I don’t know if it’s available on ARM, but Sunshine and Moonlight run so much faster than VNC. It’s meant for gaming but works perfectly fine for remote desktop access. Sunshine is the server and Moonlight is the client.

    Install x2go on the laptop/PC. You need X and SSH on the server. That’s it, when you connect it will open a new desktop session on the server.

    If you want to connect to an existing desktop session you need x2godesktopsharing installed on the server, you need to activate sharing in x2godesktopsharing, and in x2go client (on laptop/PC) you need to select “session type” as “X2Go/X11 desktop sharing”.
