Here's the problem: renich@introdesk ~ $ systemctl --user start vino-server.service Failed to start vino-server.service: Unit dbus.socket not found. Basically, it doesn't allow Desktop Sharing to start. I can see this on journald if I try to use the CLI Nov 29 20:35:01 introdesk.g02.org /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[2906]: dbus-daemon[2919]: [session uid=1000 pid=2919] Activating service name='org.freedesktop.systemd1' requested by ':1.50' (uid=1000 pid=3238 comm="/usr/libexec/gsd-sharing ") Nov 29 20:35:01 introdesk.g02.org /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[2906]: dbus-daemon[2919]: [session uid=1000 pid=2919] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 Nov 29 20:35:01 introdesk.g02.org gsd-sharing[3238]: Failed to StartUnit service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 Also, if I try to run /usr/libexec/gsd-sharing, I get this: renich@introdesk ~ $ /usr/libexec/gsd-sharing -v (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: Starting sharing manager (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: Registered client at path /org/gnome/SessionManager/Client31 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: current network: 970cf428-554d-3ef7-9678-c2488dee5b01 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: current network name: Wired connection 1 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: conn type: 802-3-ethernet (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: status: 3 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: About to stop gnome-user-share-webdav (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: About to stop rygel (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-DEBUG: About to start vino-server (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-WARNING **: Failed to StopUnit service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-WARNING **: Failed to StopUnit service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 (gsd-sharing:29769): sharing-plugin-WARNING **: Failed to StartUnit service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
The service requires dbus user sessions, therfore emerge sys-apps/dbus with [user-session] use flag enabled.

Actually closing as fixed then; that revision is long stable too. I will probably reshuffle things in ~arch soon though, removing the user-session dep from vino (as you can launch manually on openrc systems with /usr/libexec/vino-server or so), and moving it to gnome-settings-daemon or whichever component actually makes the systemd user session starting call, and default enabling it on systemd profile only. This will then cover gnome-remote-desktop as well (vino replacement that works in wayland too)
