From the menu go to System Tools - Settings - Sharing and enable Screen Sharing. This will run the Vino server which is the program that will allow a VNC connection to display:0 or the system console. Once enabled Vino listens on port 5900 for a VNC client connection or 5800 for a connection from a browser. It uses “vino” with easily setup steps, and you can get “Vinagre” VNC client on Linux ox, but you need some notices about the access on OSX. So I write my process here. Setup Vino(VNC for gnome) Just reference the post.

I have a spare laptop rest in my house which I seldom use(I major use my macbook pro for work), but it's still good for developing projects and runs Linuxi Mint. So I want it to be available any time when I'm at home so I could use it to continue my side project works. With ssh and VNC, I can setup both the command line and desktop environment online so I don't need to open the laptop, but use my macbook to access the environment. Then I have the convenience that the laptop can put anywhere in the house and clear my desktop.
Vnc Client For Mac Os X. Freeware
I found this post very useful to do the trick. It uses “vino” with easily setup steps, and you can get “Vinagre” VNC client on Linux ox, but you need some notices about the access on OSX. So I write my process here. Free irfanview for mac.
1. Setup Vino(VNC for gnome)
Just reference the post.
You can set up the items just as the post said in vino-preferences, but on Linux Mint it lacks out the “Advanced settings” mentioned in the post. So you need “dconf-editor” to manually set it.
Find the config item in dconf-editor with path “desktop.gnome.remote-access”. You need to uncheck the “require encryption” to support OSX, otherwise the authentication is unsupported on OSX.
2. Using Screen Sharing on Mac OSX
Turn on the “Spotlight” with keyboard shortcut
cmd+K
, enter “screen sharing” and you can find the default desktop sharing client app on Mac OSX.Type “vnc://your_server_ip:5900” and then you get the prompt to enter password for the access. That's it!
3. More
The post also talked about using the
avahi
service to broadcast the desktop sharing service to OSX. It is an advanced option to try, I will update it if I have tried.Original author(s) | Mark McLoughlin, Calum Benson[1] |

Vino is the VNC server for the GNOMEdesktop environment.
Configuration up to version 3.8.0 was via the vino-preferences program. This was removed from the packages after that version, since the gnome-control-center could then be used alternatively to control settings.

However, Vino is also useful in some other Linux distributions, which may not use GNOME desktop; and where gnome-control-center is not present: this leaves those distributions with no preference editor. For these distributions, (Lubuntu is one example, being based on LXDE, not GNOME), the alternative configuration manager tool dconf-editor is recommended (sudo apt install dconf-editor to install). The VNC settings can then be accessed under org -> gnome -> desktop -> remote-access using that tool.
