Black screen when connecting to Raspberry Pi boards
When connecting to Raspberry devices which use Wayland, a black screen can show.
The workaround is to disable Wayland compositor.
RaspberryPi OS:
sudo raspi-config
Advanced Options -> Wayland -> X11 -> OK -> Finish -> Yes (to reboot)
Ubuntu 22.04 and newer:
edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf as administrator and uncomment and set:
WaylandEnable=false
