Hi DRC,
many thanks for your reply and sorry for the delay.
In the meanwhile I'm quite familiar with the new standard desktop of
Ubuntu 18.04. Since it is compatible with TurboVNC again (other than
Unity of Ubuntu 16.04) I don't need to use MATE anymore. So I also don't
need to set TVNC_WM using your new -wm Option now. But it surely will be
useful for many other TurboVNC users in future.
Best regards
Torsten

My Question is: Where do I have to place this command so that it takes
effect when activating the tvnc session both on the local screen and
from remote? Is it needed by the tvnc server or only by the tvnc viewer?
Perhaps you remember on my host the tvnc server is automatically started
at boot time (see threat "Is it possible to start vncserver
automatically at boot time?"). Here are some candidates I know:
TVNC_WM will only control the window manager in the TurboVNC session,
not the "local" display on the TurboVNC host.
/etc/sysconfig/tvncservers
/etc/init.d/tvncserver?
/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver
~/.vnc/xstartup.turbovnc
Oops. Yes, that was a legitimate oversight on my part. I've added a
new option to vncserver (-wm) that allows TVNC_WM to be set from the
command line. You should now be able to add that option to the
VNCSERVERARGS[] array in your tvncservers file, using the latest 2.2.x
stable pre-release build from:
https://turbovnc.org/DeveloperInfo/PreReleases
NOTE: only the server is needed from the pre-release build. You can
still use the 2.2 viewer.
Let me know if it works. You can also now specify the equivalent of
TVNC_WM in /etc/turbovncserver.conf (system-wide) or
~/.vnc/turbovncserver.conf (per-user.)
I'm going to look into a better way of deploying xstartup.turbovnc in
the next major release.
