I'm trying to run bVNC on a Chromebook to a vnc into a Raspberry Pi. Help. Has anyone done this? If, yes, please point me to how you did it. Tying to run a summer class with headless Raspberry Pi using Chromebooks, and can't seem to figure out how to connect with bVNC on the Chromebook. basically REALVNC is not available for the managed Chromebooks,a and I need a different flow to VNC into the Raspberry Pi, where all I do is turn on vnc in the raspberry pi, and then run a VNC app on the Chromebook...

Hi Jim,

I need a few more details exactly to understand where you are stuck:

If you are trying to install the application on Chromebook, you should be able to log onto the Google Play Store from Chromebook and install the freebVNC or bVNCPro from there.

If you are past that and stuck on an issue with the actual application, Screenshots and LOGCAT would help to better diagnose what is going on.

I think that I had the same problem as Jim. I've posted the solution that I found in this thread: https://groups.google.com/g/bvnc-ardp-aspice-opaque-remote-desktop-clients/c/ZKasqTwP5nU/m/Dcwst_AvAwAJ
