How to do screen casting in tightvnc?

Tell me who faced such a problem.
Enabled the pre-installed tightvnc on tinkerOS (Debian) (asus tinkerboard)
Works kinda weird for me. The fact is that what I do remotely is not displayed visually on tinkerOS, it is displayed in the Viewer window, but nothing on the remote server. Also, those applications that are running remotely and minimized on the panel are also not visible in the Viewer.
I would like tightvnc to work as TeamViewer, by the way I can’t install it, since it is not supported with this architecture.

You most likely need to explicitly specify the display option at startup in order to connect to the same display that you are working with locally.
I won’t immediately suggest the option to specify a display for tightvnc. You can read man.
TinkerOS also has x11vnc. ( Installation instructions here )
It is advised to run it with options -noxrecord -forever
A to explicitly specify the port and display, more options are needed. -rfbport 5901 -display :0
As a result, you should get the following command to run:
To find out the display number in a local session in the terminal, write:
echo $DISPLAY
