VNC Viewer Disconnect or Click Ctrl Alt Del makes the screen black

0

CLIENT my VNC Viewer is on OS X EL Capitain 10.11.6

SERVER

My target server is kali 4.15.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.15.11-1kali1 (2018-03-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Desktop Session is lightdm-xsession

ISSUE

Initially session works fine but after the session either auto disconnect or if i hit CTRL ALT DEL button on the VNC Viewer itself the whole screen goes black

Hitting CTRL ALT DEL on the following toolbar is having the same issue

VNC VIEWER TOOLBAR

I haven't been able to find a way to recover out of it.

WORKAROUND

The only thing that is working for me is SSH > Reboot

The issue is really it's getting locked, Same issue can be reproduced by choose the lock option from the menu, i just don't know how to unlock it to bring it back to the login screen – SeanClt – 2018-06-19T00:10:07.633

i did updated my power settings to never lock or blank screen but still would like to know how to recover from a lock situation – SeanClt – 2018-06-19T14:24:55.967
