Success!

I'm trying to avoid using a dongle if possible. I was able to get it to work for the first time today. Nothing all that special really, I just had to run the right commands to get the vncserver to start, and the right commands for the client as well. I'm going to make this better, but for now I just run on the astroberry:

1. ssh to the astroberry
2. vncserver 192.168.247.108:3

and on the desktop:

xtigervncviewer -via This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. :3

It connects and seems to work. From here I'm going to improve the process and make it start from boot. This is all without any HDMI output so I can turn that off and end the interference with wifi 2.4G / USB3 -- I couldn't get 5G to work, so maybe it's not supported on the RPI4? BTW: I didn't have to uninstall or disable the realvnc server, just ran tightvnc on it's own, and my router is setup to always issue that ip address to the astroberry --
