My vncserver is running on a rawhide instance tigervnc-server-1.10.1-2.
The viewer is run from an updated F31 system tigervnc-1.10.1-1.
When I connect to the sever and a connection is open the F8 keep pops up a menu as it
is supposed to.
Oh, I should add that my server and client are both running KDE and using the Xorg
server.
Are you running your vncviewer in GNOME/Wayland?
