You're comparing an OS that hasn't had a major release in almost 5 years to a bleeding edge Linux distribution. Install an older LTS version of Ubuntu or Debian and things will be quite stable.

Actually, no, I havent had an out-of-the-box working VNC for more than 5 years now, through various Ubuntu LTS releases and now Fedora.

Every single one of them has had various annoying bugs that would not have survived decent QA.

But your point is partially correct - at least the LTS releases had workarounds for the problems, whereas with Fedora I am SOL
