wayvnc: WAYLAND_DISPLAY is not set in the environment

Run it with set WAYLAND_DISPLAY:


env WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1 wayvnc


Check in `/run/user/$UID` the number of active walyand session, e.g. 1 in `niri.wayland-1.1846.sock= `

VNC: Applications in a vnc client (tigervnc) running fluxbox open in a Wayland host instead of the vnc client

In the vnc:

set -e XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
set -e DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS


To do it automatically at the start add the following
to `.fluxbox/startup` before `exec fluxbox`:
unset XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS

exec fluxbox

Firefox crashes when opening through waypipe on Wayland

Run it without GPU:
``` waypipe --no-gpu ssh user@host firefox ```
