Find problem connecting with 2.8.75 using tigervnc 
viewer from Fedora 36? Worked find with 2.8.63??

Connection is made and prompts for password. If wrong 
password entered it loops back to ask again, but it 
correct password entered it just drops back to command 
prompt with
 CConn:       Using pixel format depth 24 (32bpp) 
little-endian rgb888
 CConn:       End of stream

Tried some options, but none seems to work. Was testing 
with local Windows 7 and Windows 11 machines both 
upgraded to 2.8.75, but fail from Fedora 36. They do 
connect with no problem from the Windows 7 to 
Windows 11 machine. So not sure why the issue with 
Fedora 36 and tigervnc viewer.

Have another machine 7 timezones away that has 2.8.63 
and it works. Don't know if there is some command 
switch that would solve it, or if it is something causing a 
problem.

Send message to tigervnc list.
