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
