=== Vino want run ===
On Ubuntu based Mint it was easy to configure VNC-server Vino. Some options setted and it was up and running. Connection from a mac was possible and fast. Only thing to remember was to turn of the setting ##require-encryption##.
On debian based there was a problem. I found some help here:
== settings ==
In tools on board ther is no possibility to set options of Vino. Tolls additionally installed (grafical) doesn't really work. So I had to take ##gsettings##. Details here:

== settings - alternative ! ==
With dconf-editor it does work too - just ##apt-get install dconf-editor##
See this too: http://ask.xmodulo.com/enable-configure-desktop-sharing-linux-mint-cinnamon-desktop.html
== starting and stopping Vino-service ==
If vino doesn't link to the right screen (only black screen after VNC-connection), use this:

specially:
## pkill vino
export DISPLAY=:0.0
/usr/lib/vino/vino-server &
##
== activate autologin from console ==
