Hi there,
Using Raspberry Pi imager I created a new Raspbian OS on a 32GB SD card using the (twice) recommended 64-bit Bookworm with Desktop install.
Pi was able to boot and I can access via SSH from my iPhone where I installed XRDP so as to access the desktop just like I do on my other older Pi's running Buster.
I ran sudo apt update followed by sudo full-upgrade and it took 220+ updates I think!
A quick sudo reboot and up it came again and SSH gets me to a working command line as expected with no issues.
However when using Microsoft RDC on my PC although I can logon to the new Pi 4 using its IP address all I get is a black screen - no desktop GUI as I would expect.
If I right-click I do get the Pi context menu come up allowing me to choose various options but whatever I choose the desktop just stays black!
I've obviously missed something fundamental here so if some kind soul could help me out please it would be much appreciated.
Thanks & kind regards,
