The easiest thing to do is just to switch the server box back to X11.
(Assuming you have the necessary privs and authority to do so)
Over in Raspberry Pi Land, there is lots of wailing and gnashing of teeth
over this issue, with Wayland breaking pretty much everything. One of the
first things people noticed is that VNC no longer worked, but that was
quickly fixed by somebody putting together a WayVNC server. You might
check to see if that is available in your Linux environment.
I would not bother with RDP - that's an MS thing.
